What is recorded here

Indicated is a fairy fort at the south end of a Monaghan drumlin ridge, its thirty-six-metre circle marked by a faint bank, hedge and scarp rather than a grand wall. A farm lane skirts the perimeter while the true entrance remains hidden, suggesting the site resists easy mapping or ownership. People may have lived inside that shallow ring before becoming legend, yet the reduced earth and ordinary traffic now treat it as a forgotten neighbour rather than a monument.

Located at the S end of a N-S drumlin ridge. This is a circular grass-covered area (diam. 36.5m NE-SW) defined by a slight bank (at S: Wth 1.5m; int. H 0.2m; ext. H 1.3m) and hedge but the perimeter is generally reduced to a scarp (at N: H 0.75m) with an outer drain (at S: Wth of base 1m; ext. D 0.4m), The original entrance is not identified, and the perimeter is skirted by a farm lane W-N. 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: 26 January 2018
