In undulating pasture, on a slight rise. Indicated on the 1838 OS 6-inch map as a small irregular field defined on the N, E and S sides by field boundaries and on the W by two buildings at right angles to each other. According to local information, this field was regarded as a fort. Present remains consist of a raised area (int. diam. 22m N-S; c. 30m E-W) enclosed by an earthen bank (Wth 1.5m; int. H 0.5m; ext. H 1m) N-SSW and truncated at W end by a house.
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).
