In rough pasture, near the top of the N-facing slope of a ridge. A circular area (diam. 26m) enclosed by a substantial earthen bank (Wth 3.2m; int. H 1m; ext. H 1m) with numerous gaps. Along the E arc the bank is incorporated into a NNW-SSE field boundary. A band of rushes (Wth 3m) may mark the line of a silted-up external fosse W-NW; the line of the fosse along the S arc is disturbed by recent drainage works. The interior is covered with rushes and there is a dense growth of gorse on the bank at SW.
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).
