On the S-facing slope of a ridge. A raised oval area (60m N-S; 50m E-W) defined by a scarp (max. H 1.3m at S; min. H 0.2m at N) and an external fosse (Wth 3m; D 0.4-0.6m). The fosse is marked by a dense growth of rushes. The interior slopes steeply down to S; roughly midway along the E half, a sharp break of slope is marked by a scarp faced with small stones. There is a possible souterrain (SL027-055002-) in the SE quadrant. An enclosure (SL027-054----) lies immediately to N and a field boundary immediately to W.
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).
