In wet pasture, on top of a ridge. A raised roughly circular area (int. diam. 20m E-W; 22.5m N-S) defined by a poorly preserved earthen bank along the E arc (Wth 3.2m; int. H 0.5m; ext. H 1.1m) and by a scarp (H 1.6m) elsewhere. A ramp (L c. 5m), with a causeway across the fosse, is evident at N though no corresponding entrance survives. The interior is level. A field boundary slightly truncates the S edge of the rath. This field boundary was not indicated on the 1838 OS 6-inch map.
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).
