In pasture, on top of a NE-SW ridge. The rath is indicated on the 1838 OS 6-inch map as an embanked circular area (diam. c. 25m). It is now evident as a raised subrectangular area (20m N-S; 24m E-W) defined W-E by an arc of an earthen bank and by linear field boundaries which form the SE and SW sides. The bank (Wth 3.4m; int. H 0.4m; ext. H 1.45m) has some stones protruding from the sod on the internal face at E. An enclosure (SL025-126----) lies c. 30m to E.
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).
