Located towards the S end of a short N-S drumlin ridge. This is a subcircular grass and scrub-covered area (dims 42m NNW-SSE; 35m ENE-WSW) defined by an earthen bank (Wth of base c. 3m; int. H 0.6m; ext. H 2m) NW-N that is reduced to a scarp (at E: H 2.2m) with evidence of an outer stone facing elsewhere, and an outer fosse (Wth of base c. 2.5m; ext. D `c. 0.5m) NW-N that is much reduced N-E. The original entrance is not identified. The monument 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.
