What is recorded here

Marked 'Fort' on OS 1836 and 1876 eds. Raised circular area (int. diam. 28.4m) enclosed by the base of a stone rampart (original Wth 2.2m) which has been modernised and incorporated into the field boundary. Original entrance not recognisable. The site is divided into two unequal portions by a field boundary running NW-SE. The smaller portion ENE of this has been levelled but the outline of the perimeter may still be traced as a low mound of earth and stone. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cavan' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1995). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 22 December 2008
