On top of a ridge. A slightly raised circular area (24m N-S; 26m E-W) enclosed by a substantial earthen bank (Wth 4.7m; int. H 1m; ext. H 1.4m) which is incorporated into a NE-SW field boundary along the NW arc. An internal stone revetment is visible on the bank in places. An external fosse (Wth 3.5m; D 0.7m) is evident NE-W. In the SE quadrant of the interior is a raised level area defined by a curved scarp (H 0.3m). A number of eroded gaps occur along the bank and there is a possible entrance at NE. Another rath (SL034-157----) lies c. 50m to NW.
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).
