What is recorded here

Located on top of a drumlin and immediately outside the fosse of rath (MO024-036----) at SW. A large cist protrudes from the cairn (MO024-027----) at N. The cist (dims 1.5m N-S; 0.5m E-W; H 0.4m) has long side-stones at E (dims 1.55m x 0.2m; H 0.4m) and W (dims 1.15m; x 0.2m; H 0.4m) and an end-stone at S but it is open at N. It is covered by a large roof-stone (dims 1.3m NE-SW; 1.2m NW-SE; T 0.45-0.5m). The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Monaghan' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1986).
