Situated on a bluff (H c. 8m) on the NE bank of a NW-SE stream, which is c. 20m to the S. It is depicted as an oval embanked enclosure (ext. dims c. 35m NW-SE; c. 25m NE-SW) on the 1834 edition of the OS 6-inch map where it is described in gothic lettering as a ‘fort’. This is a level grass-covered area (diam. c. 26m NNW-SSE) defined by a slight scarp NW-NE, which fades out NE-SE where it meets the steep overgrown slope down to the stream. The perimeter is formed here by a scarp (H 3.2m) with a berm (Wth 3.2m) at the base SE-W. 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. Date of revision: 25 July 2017

Everytownland reads the registered freehold land and the statutory boundaries of Tailte Éireann, the national zoning, planning file and heritage records of the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage, and the Residential Property Price Register. A parcel is the land of a title, not an address. The owner's name is in the Land Registry of Tailte Éireann: a copy of the folio can be ordered on landdirect.ie, for a fee; this site names no owner. A price is the price recorded for a past sale, not a valuation.
