What is recorded here

Large raised circular area (int. diam. c. 61.1m) enclosed by a substantial earthen bank which has been much modified and incorporated into the field boundary. Modern narrow roadways, bordered by high earthen banks, divide the site into four roughly equal quadrants. Original entrance not recognisable. 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

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
