What is recorded here
Marked only on the 1910 ed. of the OS 6-inch map, and built into an E-facing slope beside an abandoned farmstead. A circular, drystone-built structure (int. diam. 1.35m; H 1.65m) has an entrance (Wth 0.5m; H 0.9m) facing ESE. Its tin roof, which was recorded in 1998, is no longer present (pers. comm. A. Harte, Leitrim Sweathouse Project).
The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Leitrim' compiled by Michael J. Moore (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2003). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
