In a young coniferous plantation, on a level area just below the summit of a ridge. A raised circular area (diam. 29m) enclosed by an earthen bank and a possible external fosse. The bank (Wth 3.5m; int. H 0.8m; ext. H 1m) is generally low internally. The entrance (Wth 3m) is at E, infilled with stones. There is a gap (Wth 2m) in the bank at NE. A band of darker vegetation (Wth 3m) surrounding the bank probably indicates a silted-up external fosse. A field boundary truncates the line of the fosse at NW.
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).
