On the lower W-facing slope of a ridge. A slightly raised circular area (25.4m N-S; 23.7m E-W) defined by a flat-topped earthen bank (Wth 2.5m; int. H 0.4m; ext. H 1.3m) NW-SE and by a scarp (H 0.7m) elsewhere. An external flat-bottomed boggy fosse (Wth 4m; D 1m) is evident SW-E with a counterscarp bank (Wth 1.4m; int. H 1.1m; ext. H 0.3m) NW-NNE. Recent wide entrances, with ramps from the exterior, are at W and NE. The fosse is truncated by field boundaries along the E and S perimeters.
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).
