On the W end of a ridge; the ground slopes down steeply to W. A raised circular area (diam. 27m) enclosed by an earthen bank with an external fosse. The bank (Wth 3.8m; int. H 0.65m; ext. H 1.4m) is fairly uniform all round and incorporated into a field boundary NE-E. Gaps occur in the bank at NW (Wth 2m) and SW (Wth c. 2.5m). The fosse (Wth 3.5m) is evident along the W and N arcs as a slight dip marked by a dense growth of rushes. The interior is partially covered with overgrowth.
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).
