The National Monuments Service's description
Projecting from the external face of the NE wall of a cashel (SL040-085002-), to the E of the cashel entrance, is a sod-covered stone platform (c. 4m N-S; 4m E-W; H 0.65m). On the S side of the platform, at its intersection with the cashel wall, there is a narrow break (Wth 0.6m) in the external face of the cashel wall that opens into a linear hollow (Wth 1.3m) extending for 3.2m to S through the thickness of the wall.
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).
