The National Monuments Service's description
Indicated as a small island (dims c. 20m N-S; c. 10m E-W) on the 1835 edition of OS 6-inch map at the SW end of Lough Conway (dims c. 400m NE-SW; c. 200m NW-SE). No feature is visible at ground level in an area which is regularly flooded, although a small feature (diam. c. 5m) is sometimes visible above the water.
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.
