In pasture, on top of a drumlin with a commanding view. This rath is not visible at ground level. It was indicated on the 1838 OS 6-inch map as a D-shaped enclosure (dims. c. 30m NE-SW; straight NE side L c. 30m NNW-SSE). On the 1942-43 OS 6-inch map it was indicated as a subrectangular area (c. 40m NE-SW; c. 40m NW-SE) defined by a curving field boundary N-NE, by a curving scarp NE-SSW, by two short linear field boundaries which form a W corner and by a hachured bank NW-N. There is a souterrain (SL044-023002-) in the interior.
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).
