In pasture, at a break in slope on the N side of a ridge. A raised circular area (37.2m N-S; 37.7m E-W) enclosed by an earthen bank (Wth 5.6m; int. H 0.7m; ext. H 2.7m). Gaps occur in the bank at N (Wth 3m), at W (Wth 1.5m) and at E (Wth 1m). A field boundary has been built onto the external face of the bank E-SW. The bank has been dug into in several places E-S. A shallow depression (Wth 1.4m), evident outside the bank W-NNW, may be the remains of an external fosse. There is a souterrain (SL025-059002-) in the SW quadrant of the interior.
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).
