In pasture, on an E-facing slope of a high ridge. A circular area (diam. 42m) defined by a substantial earthen bank (Wth 4.2m; int. H 0.7m; ext. H 1.1m) ESE-WNW and by a scarp (H 1.3m) WNW-ESE. A fosse (Wth 4m; D 1m) is evident NE-WNW. The interior slopes down to N. In the NW quadrant a heavily overgrown arc of earthen bank (Wth 3.2m; H 1m) (SL034-089002-), with external fosse, curves into the interior from the bank at NW. A NE-SW field boundary bisects the interior. Trees grow along the perimeter and the S half of the interior is covered with 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).
