In level upland pasture, adjacent to a cashel (SL036-040001-), on the southern slopes of the Ox Mountains. The adjoining fields to SW and SE of the cashel are under coniferous forest. The cashel is within a large rectangular field which overlaps or supersedes the remains of the walls shown radiating to W, NE and E from the perimeter of the cashel on the 1914 OS 6-inch map. These walls remain as moss-covered jumbles of stone (Wth c. 1.5m; H 0.3-0.5m) two of which, 15m apart, subdivide the NE end of the rectangular field. There are remains of similar walls nearby.
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).
