Fairy fort / earthen ringfort

What is recorded here

Situated at the summit and towards the S end of a N-S drumlin ridge. This was described in 1967 as a circular overgrown area (diam. c. 35m) defined by a scarp (at E: Wth 0.6m; H 1m), with a small outer drain at E and farm buildings just to the S. It was removed before 1995 (OSAP). 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. Date of revision: 29 August 2017
