What is recorded here
Large raised roughly circular area (int. diam. c. 79m) enclosed by a low earthen bank and a wide fosse. Site is divided into two roughly equal portions by a field boundary running NNW-SSE, ENE of which the enclosing features were levelled in the late 1980s. At the remainder of the site the fosse has been infilled but its outline may still be traced. Original entrance not recognisable.
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.
