Situated on a low NE-SW spur at the base of a SW-facing slope in a narrow NE-SW valley with hills to the NE and SW. A small embanked enclosure (ext. diam. c. 25m) is depicted only on the 1834 edition of the OS 6-inch map where it is described in gothic lettering as a ‘fort’. No archaeological feature is visible at ground level in pasture although faint indications of a subrectangular enclosure defined by a single fosse feature can be seen on OSI aerial images (1995).
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.
