The National Monuments Service's description
Located towards the top of a low rise. it is visible as an anomalous feature on aerial photographs (GSIAP: H, 72-3). This is a grass and rush-covered subrectangular area (dims 15m E-W; 9m N-S) defined by an overgrown field bank at N and by a scarp (H 0.4m) and an external band of rushes (Wth 1.5m) at the other sides. The enclosure is overlain by a N-S field wall at W, and it may be the S part of a larger enclosure truncated by the field bank at N.
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.
