In rough grazing, on top of the S side of a ridge. A raised circular area (diam. 30m) defined by remains of an earthen bank (Wth 3.6m; max. int. H 0.5m; ext. H 1.4m) ENE-S and by a scarp elsewhere. An external fosse (Wth c. 2m) is evident NNW-SW as a slight depression marked by a growth of rushes. A possible entrance (Wth 2.4m) is at E. The interior is truncated slightly WSW-NNW by a field boundary. Some rushes grow in the interior, elsewhere the rath is mainly grass-covered. Another rath (SL027-059----) lies c. 30m to NNW.
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).
