The National Monuments Service's description
In pasture. Indicated on the 1838 OS 6-inch map as an oval enclosure (long axis N-S) and on the 1913 OS 6-inch map as an oval enclosure (c. 25m N-S; c. 35m E-W). The area is covered with an impenetrable thicket of blackthorn bushes and brambles. Only a small section of a stone wall (Wth c. 3.7m; int. H 0.6m; ext. H 0.5m) is visible through the overgrowth at N.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Sligo' compiled by Ursula Egan, Elizabeth Byrne, Mary Sleeman with Sheila Ronan and Connie Murphy (Dublin Stationery Office, 2005).
