In undulating pasture, on the E side of a rise. Indicated on the 1838 OS 6-inch map as an embanked circular area (diam. c. 20m) on the N edge of a large quarry pit. Remains consist of a raised semicircular area (25.3m E-W) defined by an arc of earthen bank (Wth 4.5m; int. H 0.5m; ext. H 1.7m) W-ENE and by a steep linear scarp to S of which is the N limit of a large quarry pit (20m x 25m). Some stone revetment was noted on the external face of the bank along the NE 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).
