In pasture, on a W-facing slope. A roughly circular area (diam. c. 37m) defined by a scarp (H 0.3m) and an external fosse (Wth c. 6m; D 0.2m) N-E; a hedgerow curving E-SW appears to follow the line of the defences. According to local information, the rath was levelled c. 1920s. The rath is indicated on the 1838 OS 6-inch map as an embanked circular area (diam. c. 40m).
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).
