What is recorded here

Situated just off the S-facing crest of a hill. A circular earthwork is depicted here only on a revision of the 1834 edition of the OS 6-inch map dated 1858. Possible traces of an enclosure (diam. c. 40m) are visible in pasture on aerial images (OSAP: 2005). 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: 1 February 2018
