What is recorded here
Depicted as a tree-ring on OS 1836 and 1876 eds. Situated on the summit of a drumlin hill. An earlier report (OPW 1969) described a raised circular area (int. diam. c. 21m) enclosed by a low, narrow but steep-sided earthen bank and a narrow shallow fosse. Original entrance was not recognisable. Site has been levelled.
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.
