The National Monuments Service's description
In the SE quadrant of a rath (SL034-108001-). A line (L 6m E-W) of stone slabs, probably the roof lintels of a souterrain passage, are exposed along the inner edge of the bank of the rath at S. Other stones, visible 14m to E, indicate the continuation of the souterrain to E.
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).
