What is recorded here

Located in a low-lying landscape between drumlins. A circular embanked enclosure (ext. diam. c. 35m) 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 represented as an arc of hachures N-E running into a curving field bank E-S on the 1907 edition of the map. The area is now occupied by farm buildings. 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. Date of revision: 6 December 2017
