What is recorded here

No visible wall or gate remains, only a shallow earthen ridge and scattered stones across a grassy slope. The absence of a clear boundary does not diminish the site; it redirects attention to the shape of the ground itself. A ringfort may have stood there in a time when people read landscapes as readily as written words. What is missing has not stopped the place from speaking.

Located towards the bottom of a NW-facing slope. This is a circular to subrectangular overgrown area (diam. 41m ENE-WSW; 38m NNW-SSE) defined by a slight earthen bank (Wth 3.4-4.2m; int. H 0.4-0.8m; ext. H 0.5m at E to 1.2m at W), with an outer stone facing S-WSW which morphs into a stone wall on top of the bank WSW-NE. There is no visible fosse but the original entrance (Wth of base 1.6m) is likely to be the one at NE. Rath (MO028-024----) is across the valley c. 120m to the NW. 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: 6 December 2017
