In a clearing in coniferous forest, on a slight NE-facing slope. This rath was described during a previous site inspection in 1992 as a poorly preserved roughly circular area (c. 18m N-S, c. 16m E-W) defined by a scarp (H 1.3m) with a stone core along the N arc. The remainder of the rath was barely discernible as it had been heavily disturbed by forestry cultivation ridge, a N-S farm track which crosses the E side of the interior and a field boundary which truncates the E perimeter (SMR (1989) file). This rath is now completely inaccessible due to overgrowth.
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).
