What is recorded here

Raised circular area (int. diam. 34m) enclosed by a substantial earthen bank. From WSW-WNW and from NNE-ESE the bank has been levelled but its outline is still identifiable. Drystone masonry has been applied to the external face of bank from ESE-S-SW. 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
