Located at the S tip of a N-S drumlin ridge. This is an overgrown circular area (int. diam. 33.5m NNE-SSW) that slopes down to the S, which is defined by an overgrown earthen bank (at W: Wth of base 5.5m; Wth of top 1.6m; int. H 0.7m; ext. H 2.2m) WSW-NE and a scarp (at S: H 2.3m) elsewhere. There is an outer fosse that has been re-cut as a water-logged drain (at W: Wth of top 2.5m; Wth of base 2m; ext. D 0.7m) SE-W-NW. There are several gaps in the bank but that at E (Wth c. 4.6m) is probably the original entrance.
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.
