Embanked enclosure

Situated on top of a drumlin. This is a subcircular overgrown area (dims 33m WNW-ESE; 29.5m NNE-SSW) defined by an earthen bank that is best preserved S-NW, and an outer flat-bottomed fosse S-W-N that has a field bank on its outer edge SW-N, and a farm lane skirts the monument SE-SW. The ramp entrance (Wth of base 1.9m) is at S. 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. Revised by: Michael Moore Date of revision: 19 June 2018
