Possibly an O'Reilly castle which was destroyed before the second half of the 16th century (1947, 91). An earlier account (ibid.) described the remains of an enclosure (diam. c. 50.2m) comprising traces of a semicircular bank (H 1.5m) accompanied externally by a platform, perhaps representing the site of a fosse and outer bank. A modern field boundary and laneway cut through the site making identification of its features very difficult. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cavan' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1995). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
