What is recorded here

Situated on a low-lying landscape between drumlins. A circular earthwork is marked here on an estate map of Barony of Cremorne by Brownrigg and Longfield (1790) in NLI (21 F. No. 32). No archaeological feature is visible on any aerial images and its precise classification is not known, but it is likely to be a rath. 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 upload/revision: 17 July 2007
