What is recorded here

Knockudder holds a flat-topped castle mound twenty metres across, yet the missing entrance and ditch suggest the ground itself forgot how to leave. The grass may have smothered the facts, but the shape still refuses to fade.

This is a circular, flat-topped and completely overgrown mound (diam. of top c. 20m; diam. of base c. 30m; H 2-3m), although the growth is now removed (Bing c. 2013). There is no visible fosse or entrance and it was known locally as 'The Moat'. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Meath' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1987). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 10 July 2007
