Situated on a summit at the W edge of a plateau. This is a raised circular grass-covered area (diam. 40m E-W; c. 38m N-S) defined by an earthen bank (Wth c. 3m; int. H c. 0.6m N-E) that is largely reduced to a scarp (H c. 1.8m at N to c. 3m at W) and hedge, with traces of an outer fosse most evident S-W-N (Wth c. 1.8m; ext. D 0.3m). A gap (Wth of base 2m) in the bank at NNE could be 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.
