In pasture, just below the top of a ridge on a gentle W-facing slope and in a slight natural depression. A circular platform (8.4m N-S; c. 9m E-W) defined by a low scarp (H 0.65m). There is a shallow surface depression (3m E-W; 2.4m N-S) on the top of the platform at W. The siting of this barrow on a slight slope gives the impression of a fosse-like dip (Wth c. 3m) between it and the rising ground N-E. Rushes and occasional small clumps of brambles and gorse grow on and around it. It is indicated on the 1838 OS 6-inch map.
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).
