Situated at the summit of a small NW-SE drumlin ridge. It is depicted as a small circular embanked enclosure (ext. diam. c. 30m) on the 1834 edition of the OS 6-inch map where it is described in gothic lettering as a ‘fort’. No archaeological feature is visible at ground level in pasture, but the cropmark of a circular enclosure (int. diam. c. 30-35m) defined by a single fosse feature (Wth c. 2-4m) is visible on the OSI aerial images (1995) and on Google Earth (04/11/2010).
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.
