Situated on the summit of a small NW-SE drumlin ridge. This is a circular grass-covered area (diam. 32.5m N-S; 31m E-W) defined by an overgrown earthen bank (Wth 6.8-7.2m; int. H 1-1.2m; ext. H 2-2.6m) and an outer fosse (Wth of top 3.4-4.4m; ext. D 0.2m at SE to 1m at NW). A modern earthen ledge is added to the outer base of the bank all around. The large entrance (Wth of base 4.1m) that is partly closed at SE is probably the original entrance.
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.
