What is recorded here

Located just NW of the summit of a NW-SE ridge with a higher NW-SE ridge c. 130m to the NE and it is also overlooking Toome or Crinkill Lough which is to the S. This is a subcircular grass-covered area (dims 39m NW-SE; 35m NE-SW) defined by a scarp (at ENE: H 1.1m) and hedge. The original entrance is not identified, and the perimeter W-N-E had been removed by 1995 (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. Revised by: Michael Moore Date of revision: 22 June 2018
