In pasture, on top of a drumlin. A flat-topped earthen mound (diam. 19.5m at base, 12.5m at top; H 0.95m). According to local tradition, a gallows once stood on the mound. A single fixed stone on top of the mound is all that remains of a cruciform setting of stones which was noted (pers. comm. M. A. Timoney) in 1989.
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).
