What is recorded here
Marked 'Fort' on OS 1836 and 1876 eds. Situated just S of the summit of a high drumlin ridge in pasture-land. A much-disturbed, slightly raised, formerly circular area (int. diam. 29.9m) enclosed by a very slight earthen bank from S-SSW. Elsewhere the plan of the site has been much distorted by the erection of modern field boundaries.
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.
