Located on a N-S drumlin ridge. This is a circular grass-covered area (diam. 42.5m N-S; 38.5m E-W) defined by an earthen bank (Wth c. 3m; int. H 0.6m; ext. H c. 2-2.5m) NNW-NE that is largely reduced to a scarp (at E: H 1.8m) and hedge. The remains of an outer fosse (Wth of base c. 1.5m) SW-N-SE has been deepened (ext. D c. 0.7m) NNW-NNE. The original entrance is probably the large gap (Wth at base 2.3m) at S.
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.
