In pasture, on a slight platform with higher ground on all sides. A raised circular area (int. diam. 20.3m x 20.2m) enclosed by a ruinous sod-covered inner stone wall (Wth 1.9m; int. H 0.75m; ext. H 1.9m). At N, the wall turns outwards to form an entrance passage (L 7.5m; Wth 2.1m) with remains of internal stone facing and is approached by a ramp. The remains of an outer stone wall (Wth 2.25m; int. H 0.55m; ext. H 0.65m) are evident along the W arc, c. 4.5m outside the base of the inner wall, and possibly incorporated into a field boundary along the E arc. Large quantities of stone from the wall have tumbled downslope from the platform.
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).
