Located on the spine of the SE-facing slope of a low NW-SE drumlin ridge. A circular embanked enclosure (ext. diam. c. 40m) is depicted on the 1834 edition of the OS 6-inch map where it is described in gothic script as a ‘fort’ and it is depicted as a small copse (diam. c. 25m) on the 1907 edition. There were slight traces of a scarp (Chord c. 21.5m; H 0.5m) at SE in 1968 as the only indication of the monument.
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.
