What is recorded here

Located towards the top of the W-facing slope and towards the N end of a N-S drumlin ridge. It is depicted as a small circular enclosure only on the 1907 edition of the OS 6-inch map. This is a small circular area (diam. c. 15m) defined by a slight earthen bank that has some mature beech trees planted within it. According to a local tradition, a grave with bones was found in the interior. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Monaghan' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1986). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of revision: 30 August 2017
