Description
Raised circular area (int. diam. 28m) enclosed by three earthen banks with outer fosses. An earlier report (OPW 1970) interpreted the two outermost banks and fosses as being later additions, possibly dating to the period when the site was transformed into a tree-ring. Break in the inner bank at ENE may represent original entrance. 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. Date of upload/revision: 22 December 2008
