In pasture, on a gentle NW-facing slope of a ridge. A roughly circular area (35.5m N-S; 37m E-W) defined by an earthen bank (Wth 3.4m; int. H 0.7m; ext. H 1.1m) NE-E, by a scarp (H 0.7m) for short distance at S and from SW-NE. The enclosing element E-SSE and SSW-SW is incorporated into or truncated by field boundaries on a NE-SW and a NW-SE axis, respectively. There are numerous gaps in the bank. The N portion of the interior is raised to compensate for the hillslope, however, the interior retains a gentle slope down to 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).
