In undulating pasture, on a slight NW-facing slope. This rath has been levelled and no enclosing element is now visible at ground level. It was described during a previous inspection in 1992 (SMR (1989) file) as the remains of a rath (18m N-S; 16m E-W), with an earthen bank (Wth 3m; int. H 0.4m; ext. H 1.6m), the N portion raised to compensate for the hillslope. The entrance (Wth 3m) with a ramp was in the N arc. A portion of a field boundary indicated to W of the rath on the 1941 OS 6-inch map survives as a gorse-covered earthen bank.
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).
