In pasture, near the top of a gentle S-facing slope and adjoining the S edges of conjoined cashels (SL020-197007; SL020-197008-). A roughly circular area (int. diam. 21m) defined by the enclosing walls of the adjoining cashels NW-NE, by a stone-faced scarp topped by a stone field boundary NE-S and by a low grass-covered stone spread (Wth 5.1m; H 0.5m) S-NW. The stone facing on the scarp has now collapsed. The interior, which slopes down to E, is stepped due to three low natural terraces. Mentioned by Wood-Martin (1882, 21) as one of three raths in a 'trefoil arrangement'.
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).
