In rough pasture, on top of a drumlin. This rath is inaccessible due to dense overgrowth of bushes and gorse, except for a narrow section at N. A circular area (diam. c. 30m) enclosed by two earthen banks (inner bank: Wth 2.5m; int. H 0.8m; ext. H 1m; outer bank: Wth 4.5m; int. H 0.4m; ext. H 0.5m) with a intervening silt-filled fosse (Wth 4.1m). An E-W lane was indicated on the 1838 and 1914 OS 6-inch maps bisecting the rath.
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).
