In pasture, on top of a ridge. A slightly raised circular area (32m E-W; 28m NW-SE) enclosed by a bank (Wth 2.5m; int. H 0.3m; ext. H 1m) which is best preserved along the SE arc. The bank is incorporated into a field boundary along the NW and NE arcs and is disturbed by quarrying along the SW and S arcs. An entrance (Wth 5m) at S gives access to a large quarry hole (c. 20m x 14m) in the SW quadrant. An arc of an outer bank (L 16m; Wth 2.5m; int. H 1.2m; ext. H 0.6m) is evident along the NW arc. There is a shallow boggy hollow immediately outside the bank at NE.
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).
