What is recorded here

Located at the SE tip of a NW-SE spur. This is a circular slightly domed (H c. 1m) and grass-covered area (diam. 29.7m NNW-SSE; 27.5m NE-SW) defined by an earthen bank (Wth 3.6-5m; int. H 0.1m; ext. H 1.2-1.8m) covered with furze and some bushes that is incorporated into a field bank SW-NW-NNE. There is no visible fosse and the original entrance is not identified. 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: 30 January 2018
