Located on a rise towards the bottom of a S-facing slope and it overlooks a W-E section of a stream, which is c. 30m to the S. The stream flows from Lough Morne which is c. 250m to the NW. This is a circular overgrown area (diam. 32m E-W; 30.5m N-S) defined by a slight bank (at SW: Wth of base 3.2m; Wth of top 0.7m; int. H 0.3m; ext. H 2.5m) that is largely reduced to a scarp with a stone-facing (at SW: H 1.2m) at its base and an outer drain. The original entrance (Wth of base 1.9m) at ESE is now closed by the stone-facing.
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.
