In level pasture, close to a break of slope. The middle of three conjoined raths (see SL026-120001- and SL026-120003-) in a NE-SW row. A slightly raised subcircular area (30.3m NNW-SSE; 24m E-W) defined S-N by an earthen bank (Wth 3.5m; int. H 0.6m; ext. H 1m), by a discrete section of bank at E and by a slight scarp E-S. The slightly sunken remnants of a NW-SE trackway truncates the NE arc of the rath. The trackway, bordered on the NE side by a field fence, also truncates the interface between this rath and the adjoining rath (SL026-120003-) immediately to NE. The interior is level with traces of ridge and furrow cultivation on a NW-SE axis.
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).
