Situated towards the bottom of the E-facing slope of a NW-SE drumlin ridge. This is a circular grass-covered area (diam. 30.4m WNW-ESE; c. 30m N-S) defined by an overgrown earthen bank (at WNW: Wth 7m; int. H 1.3m; ext. H 1.6m) and a slight fosse (at WNW: Wth of base 1.6m; D 0.3m) that survive SE-W-NE. The perimeter is reduced to a grass-covered scarp (at ESE: H c. 4m) NE-SSE (L c. 25m) that merges into the natural slope. The original entrance is not identified but it may have been in the E sector.
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.
