What is recorded here
Situated just N of the centre of rath (MO010-014001-) and leading N from a rectangular mound or hut site (MO010-014003-). It is described (McCormick 1978, 326) as a passage or chamber (L 2m; Wth c. 1m; H 0.4-1m) with drystone walls and a lintelled roof that is entered at the S. At the N end a creep (L 0.7m; Wth 0.4m), roofed with a single lintel, leads to an inner chamber (L 2.3m plus N-S; Wth 0.45m at N to c. 0.9m at S; H 0.5m at N to 1.2m at S) that is damaged at the N end.
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.
