What is recorded here

Situated on the spine of a NW-SE ridge. A circular embanked enclosure (ext. diam. c. 30-35m) is depicted only on the 1834 edition of the OS 6-inch map. A slight curve in a field bank NE-SE probably reflects the former presence of a rath, but there is no other indication and the field bank 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: 9 May 2019
