What is recorded here
An earlier report (OPW 1974) described an almost circular raised area (int. diam. c. 50m) enclosed by a substantial earthen bank and slight traces of a fosse. Original entrance position was not identifiable. Site has been levelled. Not visible at ground level.
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.
