The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on a knoll and overgrown in a coniferous forest. Indicated as a small embanked enclosure (ext. diam. c. 20m) only on the 1835 ed. of the OS 6-inch map where it is described as a ‘Fort’. No feature is visible at ground level.
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.
