What is recorded here

An almost circular raised area (int. diam. c. 48m) enclosed by a substantial earthen bank and a fosse. From WSW-NNW the perimeter has been modified and incorporated into the field boundary. Break in bank at SSE may represent original entrance. 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.
