In rocky pasture, on a slight rise on the S slopes of the Ox Mountains. The northernmost of two conjoined cashels (see SL025-01502-). A slightly raised oval area (34m N-S; 25.7m E-W) enclosed by a mostly collapsed drystone wall which is most substantial at W (Wth 1.8m; int. H 0.8m; ext. H 1.4m) but elsewhere is reduced to a heap of stones. From SSE-SSW the wall is shared by the adjoining cashel (SL025-01502-). The interior is level. Part of a complex of cashels (SL025-01502-; SL025-01504-; SL025-01507-; SL025-01508-; SL025-01512-), enclosures (SL025-01503-; SL025-01511-), a possible enclosure (SL025-01505-), a rath (SL025-01506-) and a hut site (SL025-01510-). 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).
