In undulating pasture, straddling the top of a narrow ridge. The south-westernmost of two conjoined raths (see SL025-068----). A slightly raised roughly circular area (20.7m NNE-SSW; 23.5m NNW-SSE) defined by an earthen bank (Wth 4m; int. H 0.55m; ext. H 1.4m) NE-W and by a scarp (H 1.5m) elsewhere. The bank is shared with an adjoining rath NE-E and incorporated into a field fence system SE-W. The interior is level but slightly lower than that of the adjoining rath and is covered in thistles. The perimeter is ringed with hawthorn and gorse. A gap (Wth 1m) in the shared bank allows access between the two raths.
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).
