In pasture, on a gentle S-facing slope. A slightly raised D-shaped area (dims. 34m E-W), defined by an eroded earthen bank (Wth 2m; int. H 0.1m; ext. H 0.3m), with a straight W side (L 32.5m N-S). The S portion of the interior is raised slightly and the N portion is cut into the upslope to compensate for the hillslope, though the interior still retains a slight slope down to the S. The rath is indicated as an embanked circular area, incorporated into a field boundary S-NNW, on the 1838 OS 6-inch map and as a roughly D-shaped area on the 1914 OS 6-inch map with the linear W side indicated as part of a field boundary.
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).
