Located in reclaimed pasture on top of an E-W drumlin, at the crest of a N-facing slope. This is a circular, slightly dished area (diam. 22.7m NE-SW; 21.6m NW-SE) defined by a low scarp (max. H 0.25m). There is no trace of a fosse or entrance, but it was probably a rath. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Leitrim' compiled by Michael J.
