The National Monuments Service's description
Marked only on the 1910 ed. of the OS 6-inch map, it is situated on a knoll in an area of marshy grassland and scrub towards the bottom of the NE-facing slope of the Tullyskeherny plateau. This is a grass and reed-covered circular area (diam. 47m E-W; 44m N-S) defined by traces of a slight scarp (H 0.1-0.2m), and it is largely overgrown with scrub in the SE part.
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.
