Located on top of a drumlin. McCrea’s Map of County Monaghan (1793) shows an earthwork enclosure on top of a hill at Carrickaslane, but it is not depicted on any other map. No archaeological feature is visible on any aerial images and its precise classification is not known, but it is likely to be a rath. Its precise location is also not known.
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.

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
