In pasture, on the lower southern slopes of the Ox Mountains. A circular area (diam. 24m N-S) enclosed by an earthen bank (Wth 4m; int. H 0.8m; ext. H 1.1m), with large stones incorporated into it, SSE-ESE. An external flat-bottomed boggy fosse (Wth 5m; D 0.4m) is evident WSW-NW. Numerous gaps occur in the bank. The remains of a drystone wall tops the bank along the NW arc. The S portion of the level interior is raised to compensate for the hillslope.
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).
