Located in Bocks Lough, a subrectangular lake (max. dims 560m NNW-SSE; c. 340-490m ENE-WSW), now much reduced in size. It is represented as an island only on the 1907 edition of the OS 6-inch map and is now incorporated into the marshy NE shore of the lake. The crannog is a circular overgrown cairn (diam. 18m; H 0.8m) but no structural features are evident.
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.
