In level elevated pasture, with a fall of ground towards a stream c. 150m to S. A low subcircular platform (21.6m E-W; 18.5m N-S to field fence) defined NNE-NW by a scarp with a slight internal lip. An E-W field boundary truncates the N edge of the rath. The scarp (H 0.4m) is very low NE-SE and partially incorporated into a N-S field boundary. It is higher (H 1.3m at S; 0.9m at NW) and better preserved SSE-NW, retaining a slight internal lip in places to S and W. The interior is level with a very slight rise at NW. A low linear rise (Wth 0.8m) on a N-S axis crosses the interior close to the scarp at W, possibly an old field division or perhaps remains of cultivation ridges. A farm track skirts the perimeter SE-SSW. Another rath (SL026-063----) lies c. 100m 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).
