Situated on a low hill. This rath is depicted on McCrea’s map of County Monaghan (1773). It is a circular grass-covered area (diam. 38m NW-SE; int. diam. 33.5m NW-SE) defined by an earthen bank (Wth 5-6.5m; int. H 0.3-1m; ext. H 1.2-1.5m) supporting a hedge SE-NW, and with slight traces of an outer fosse (D 0.1-0.3m) all around. There are entrance gaps at NW, NE, and SE, but none appear to be original.
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
