In pasture, on the N end of a drumlin. A slightly raised circular area (int. diam. 21.3m N-S; 22.2m E-W) enclosed by an earth and stone bank (int. H 0.7m; ext. H 1.1m). The bank is wide along the N arc (Wth 4.7m) and narrow along the S arc (Wth 1.9m). An external fosse is indicated by a concentric band of irises along the S arc. The interior is uneven and there is a possible souterrain (SL039-123002-) in the S half. A NE-SW field boundary crosses the interior, off centre to E. Remains of cultivation ridges are visible in the field immediately to N.
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).
