In poorly drained rough grazing, on top of the E end of a ridge. A raised roughly circular area (diam. 27.5m) enclosed by an eroded earth and stone bank (Wth 3.8m; int. H 0.6m; ext. H 1.2m) SE-NE and truncated by a field boundary at E. An external fosse (Wth c. 3m; D 0.8m) is evident S-NW, marked by a dense growth of rushes. A field boundary immediately outside the bank at N probably truncated the fosse. The interior is level and overgrown with rushes. The perimeter of the rath is overgrown with gorse bushes. Another rath (SL027-041----) lies c. 60m to SSE.
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).
