Situated on the lower SE-facing slope of the spine of a NW-SE spur. It is depicted as a circular embanked enclosure (ext. diam. c. 35m) described in gothic lettering as a ‘fort’ on the 1834 edition of the OS 6-inch map and as a curved field bank SW-N-E on the 1907 edition. This is a circular grass-covered area (diam. c. 35-40m) defined by traces of a low bank and fosse, with the bank incorporated into a curved field bank NNW-NE (Chord c. 25m).
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.
