In undulating pasture, above a scarp, near the base of Carrowkeel Mountain. A raised oval area (int. diam. 17.5m x 12m) enclosed by a ruinous sod-covered stone wall (Wth 2m; int. H 1.1m; ext. H 1.55m) best evident along the E and S arcs. External wall-facing is evident along the W arc. There is a field boundary immediately to SE. A possible entrance at SSE was noted during a previous site inspection in 1978 (SMR (1989) file). Another cashel (SL040-014----) lies c. 20m to WSW.
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).
