In flat pasture. There is no evident trace of the roofless rectangular structure (c. 10m NE-SW; c. 5m NW-SE) indicated on the 1838 OS 6-inch map. According to Gwynn and Hadcock (1970, 271), this was not an independent foundation but 'a small dependency' of the nearby Third Order Regular Franciscan foundation of Court Abbey (SL032-047001-), c. 5km to the E. There is a possible souterrain (SL031-006003-) to the E, a bullaun stone (SL031-006002-) c. 60m to NE and a possible church and graveyard (SL031-005001-; SL031-005002-) c. 60m to the SW. 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).
