In rough pasture, just below the summit of a ridge; the land to W is planted with trees. A raised circular area (int. diam. 24m) enclosed by two earthen banks and an intervening fosse. The inner bank (Wth 5m; int. H 1.1m; ext. H 1.5m) is evident all round. The intervening fosse (Wth 3m) is infilled and marked by a dense growth of rushes. The outer bank (Wth 3m; int. H 0.4m; ext. H 0.4m) is incorporated into the field boundary system along the W arc. A N-S field boundary bisects the interior.
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).
