What is recorded here
Situated on an undulating landscape. It is not recorded on any map although it is depicted as an area of scrub on the 1907 edition of the OS 6-inch map. It is known locally as a burial ground, although it has not entered the folk record (IFC). This is a small, slightly raised overgrown area (dims 23m WNW-ESE; 13m NNE-SSW) with numerous stones, probably field stones in the main.
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.
