On a slight N-facing slope overlooking Ballysadare Bay. A circular area (int. diam. 25m) enclosed by two earthen banks with an intervening fosse. The inner bank (Wth 4m; int. H 0.7m; ext. H 1.5m) and the outer bank (Wth 4m; int. H 0.55m; ext. H 0.5m) are evident all round. The fosse (Wth 4.5m) survives best along the SE arc. The entrance (Wth 2.3m) is at S with a causeway across the fosse. Trees and bushes grow along the perimeter.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Sligo' compiled by Ursula Egan, Elizabeth Byrne, Mary Sleeman with Sheila Ronan and Connie Murphy (Dublin Stationery Office, 2005).
