Located in damp, rush-grown pasture, formerly part of the estate of Cummeen House, 500m S of Cummeen Strand, the inner reaches of Sligo Bay. A circular area (diam. c. 100m) is enclosed by a flat-topped earth and stone bank (Wth 5.48m, top 2.1m; int. H 0.4m; ext. H 1.67m), with an external flat-bottomed fosse (Wth base 2m). The bank is reduced to a scarp at the NE. There are several breaks in the bank, due to animal action, but the location of an original entrance is uncertain. In the centre of the flat interior, there is an enclosure (SL014-047002-), in the centre of which is a cairn (SL014-047003-). The perimeter is densely ringed with overgrowth, which encroaches in parts on the interior.
