Located at the crest of the S and SE-facing slopes of a drumlin, and overlooking Lough Bane, the W shore of which is c. 180m to the SE. A circular embanked enclosure (ext. diam. c. 45m) is depicted on the 1834 edition of the OS 6-inch map where it is described in gothic lettering as a ‘fort’, and it is depicted a circular hachured feature on the 1907 edition. This is a circular overgrown area (diam. c. 28m) surrounded by an earthen bank with traces of external fosse. The entrance is at SE.
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.
