On a slight rise, in boggy ground; the area around the rath has been recently planted with trees. A raised roughly circular area (diam. c. 25m) enclosed by the remains of an earthen bank which is best evident at NW (Wth 2.4m; int. H 0.45m; ext. H 0.85m) and levelled along the E and S arcs. A shallow external depression (Wth c. 3m; D 0.4m), evident all round, is probably the remains of a silted-up fosse. The rath is densely overgrown with hawthorn and gorse. There is a mature coniferous forest immediately to SW.
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).
