In pasture, on a ridge overlooking the Owenmore River to NE. A circular area (int. diam. 19.5m) enclosed by remains of two earthen banks with an intervening fosse. The inner bank (Wth 3m; int. H 0.4m; ext. H 2m) is evident all round. The fosse (Wth 4.5m; D 0.5m) and low remains of the outer bank (Wth 1m; ext. H 0.4m) are evident only along the N arc. The entrance (Wth 2m) is at SE with a causeway across the fosse. The N half of the interior is partially quarried into. A possible cairn (SL033-201----) lies c. 70m to SE.
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).
