In poorly drained rough grazing, on top of a narrow ridge. A raised roughly circular area (26.5m N-S; 30m E-W) defined by a scarp (H 0.8m) with an external fosse. The scarp is most substantial at N where it retains a slight internal lip (H 0.15m) but is reduced to a barely perceptible rise NE-SE. The fosse (Wth 4m; D 0.35m) is clearly defined SE-NE but evident only as a flat band of waterlogged ground marked by irises NE-SE. The interior is bisected N-S by a field boundary flanked by drains. The low remnants of a N-S field boundary lies 4m to E of 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).
