In undulating pasture, on top of a NE-SW ridge. A circular area enclosed by an earthen bank (Wth 2.8m; int. H 0.65m; ext. H 0.9m) with traces of a possible internal fosse (Wth c. 1.5m) evident NNW-SE. The overall diameter is 23.2m E-W. The bank is uniform, overgrown with hawthorn bushes and incorporated into a field boundary SSE-SSW. The interior is a low flattened dome-shape with gently sloping sides most clearly defined W-SE. Field boundaries lie immediately to the E of the barrow and there is a steep slope immediately to E and S.
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).
