What is recorded here
Situated on a rise in a col with higher ground c. 250m to the W and c. 200m to the E and with lower ground to the N and S. it is depicted only on the 1907 edition of the OS 6-inch map as a D-shaped hachured feature on the N side of an E-W road. This is a D-shaped overgrown area (dims 26.5m E-W; c. 15.5m N-S) defined by a curved and overgrown scarp (at N: Wth 1.7m; H 2m). There is no visible fosse or entrance.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Monaghan' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1986). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
