What is recorded here

In poor pasture, on a high ridge summit with panoramic views. A circular platform (diam. c. 25m; H 3.4m) with a flat top (8m E-W; 7.5m N-S) is enclosed at its base by a fosse (Wth 3.5m) and an external earthen bank (Wth 5m; int. H 0.45m; ext. H 0.6m). The top of the platform slopes down gently to E. There is a linear field boundary on top of the bank on the W arc. 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).
