In the S bay of Templehouse lake to E of a natural island. Surrounding drumlins obscure views of other crannogs (SL033-029----; SL033-030----; SL033-209----) in the lake. A roughly circular low-cairn crannog (14.5m N-S; 13.6m E-W; H 1.54m above the lake-bed). In the centre is a circular stone cairn (5m N-S; 4.5m E-W). The E edges of the crannog drop sharply into the water while the slope is less sharp at NW towards the open lake. A berm is visible only at NW. There is a small stone jetty (2.3m x 1.6m) at NNE, built of loosely packed stones.
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).
