What is recorded here
Raised circular area (int. diam. 31.7m) enclosed by a much-denuded, low earthen bank. An earlier report (OPW 1969) suggested that the original entrance was probably at SE. At the centre of the enclosed area is a low, roughly circular platform of earth and stone (diam. c. 8.5m) which presumably represents a hut site.
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.
