Situated on top of a small NNW-SSE drumlin ridge. This is a grass and scrub-covered subcircular area (dims 34m N-S; 30.5m E-W) defined by an overgrown earthen bank (at SSE: Wth of base 3m; int. H 0.4m; ext. H 0.7m). There is no visible fosse but outside the bank is a field bank and hedge that has an outer drain N-SSE, and the field bank is replaced by a masonry wall W-NW where it borders a NE-SW farm road. The entrance (Wth of base 3m) in the rath bank is at ENE. The interior has become overgrown since 1968 (OSAP).
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.
