In rough grazing, on the steep SW-facing slope of a ridge. A circular area (diam. 20.8m) enclosed by an earthen bank and an external fosse. The bank (Wth c. 4m; ext. H 0.5m) is low and eroded and evident internally as a slight lip. The fosse (Wth 3.5m; D 0.3m) is evident only along the N upslope arc and is marked by a growth of rushes N-NE. The interior is slightly concave and slopes down to SW. In the N half of the interior, immediately inside the bank is a flat terrace (Wth c. 6.4m; H 0.55m), possibly created from levelled bank material.
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).
