In pasture, on top of a drumlin. A raised circular area (35.5m N-S) defined by two earthen banks and an intervening fosse (Wth 6.3m; D 0.6m). The inner bank (Wth 3.5m; int. H c. 1m) is evident SE-WNW. Elsewhere the interior is defined by a scarp. The outer bank (Wth 4m; ext. H 1.6m) is evident SW-NNE. A field boundary skirts the fosse NE-S. The interior is raised c. 1.4m above the external ground level and poached by cattle. Quarrying is evident in the fosse at NE. A conjoined rath (SL038-119002-) lies immediately to SE on the opposite side of the 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).
