The National Monuments Service's description
In 1836 it was noted that there was an old fort, near two farmhouses, near the centre of the townland (OSNB vol. 1, 481). The exact location of this possible rath is not known.
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).
