Situated at the SE end of a NW-SE drumlin ridge. This is a raised circular grass and scrub-covered area (diam. 48m N-S; 44m E-W) defined by an overgrown earthen bank (Wth of base 6-7m; int. H 0.8-1m; ext. H 3-3.6m) and an outer flat-bottomed fosse (Wth of top 7-9m; Wth of base 1-3m; ext. D 1-1.2m). There is an entrance gap (Wth of base 1m) at SSE, which might not be the original entrance. The stumps of an old tree plantation are in the interior.
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.
