In pasture, on a rise in a sheltered hollow. An oval mound (14m N-S; 19.5m E-W; max. H 2.1m), damaged on its N edge by a mechanical digger exposing light brown soil with traces of iron pan. A fragment of metal slag and a charcoal fleck were noted in the soil. A few small limestone stones on the S edge of the mound may be the remains of an enclosing element; a slight trace of a fosse was noted on the W arc.
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).
