Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Latinalbany

Situated at the crest of the NE-facing slope of a broad drumlin. It is depicted as an embanked enclosure (ext. diam. c. 40m) described as a ‘fort’ in gothic lettering only on the 1834 edition of the OS 6-inch map. No archaeological feature is visible at ground level in pasture. Rath (MO031-065----) is c. 50m to the SE. 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: 31 July 2017
