The National Monuments Service's description
A roughly circular area (diam. c. 28.5m NE-SW) defined by an arc of field boundary wall NE-SW and by traces of a scarp NW-NE. The field boundary (Wth c. 2m; H 0.5m), which is densely overgrown with blackthorn bushes and brambles, incorporates some large boulders.
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).
