What is recorded here

No visible mound remains, but the ground still holds the shape of a chamber: a shallow circular depression, a faint raised ring around it, and a shadow line where a wall or roof edge may have stood. That much is visible. The rest is loss: timber rotted, plaster scattered, or the room was never built for pride. A person may have stood inside, measured the dark, and left it empty on purpose.

Raised circular area (int. diam. c. 30m) enclosed by a substantial earthen bank and a wide, deep fosse. Fosse is slight at E where a modern farm building has encroached on its outer lip. Break in bank at NE with accompanying causeway represents original entrance. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cavan' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1995). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 22 December 2008
