In pasture, on the S-facing slope of a bog-island. An oval area (30m NE-SW; c. 20m NW-SE) terraced into the hillslope with N and NW portions up to 0.6m below and the S and SE portions up to 1.75m above external ground level. The interior is defined by an earthen bank (Wth 2.5m; int. H 0.8m; ext. H 0.2m) along the NW and N arcs, by the remains of a drystone wall skirting the E arc and by a scarp elsewhere. The N half of the interior is higher than the S half, the change in level marked by a scarp (H 0.5m) revetted by a drystone wall.
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).
