Located on the crest of a small WNW-ESE drumlin ridge. This is a grass-covered circular area (diam. 48.5m NW-SE; 46.8m NE-SW) that slopes down to the NE. It is defined by an earthen bank (at SE: Wth 6m; int. H 0.5m; ext. H 1.8m) E-S and W-NNW (at NW: Wth 5m; int. H 1m; ext. H 2m) and scarps elsewhere. There are slight traces of an external fosse S-SW and there is a hedge on the perimeter. In the interior there is an ancient NNW-SSE scarp (Wth 1m; H 1m) down to the W located 6-7m inside the perimeter at W with no associated spoil. There are entrance gaps at NW (Wth of base 1.5m) and SE (Wth of base 2.6m), either or neither of which might be original. Rath (MO028-111----) is c. 90m to the SE. 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.

Located on the SE-facings spine of a small WNW-ESE drumlin ridge. This is a grass-covered oval area (dims 31m NW-SE; 23m NE-SW) defined by an earthen bank (Wth 4.4m; int. H 0.8m; ext. H 1.2m) WNW-N, which is reduced to a scarp (at SW: H 2.2m) elsewhere, although there is a slight bank (Wth 5m; int. H 0.4m; ext. H 1.4m) at SE. There is a berm (Wth 2-4m) around most of the overgrown perimeter, which is probably the remains of a fosse, and an outer bank (Wth 2m; ext. H 0.2m) or field bank surrounds the monument W-NE. The entrance (Wth of base 1.6m) is at SE. Rath (MO028-110----) is c. 90m to the NW.
