Description
Located just S of the summit of a small N-S ridge, it is described in gothic lettering on the 1907 edition of the OS 6-inch map as ‘Liscussee’. This is an oval or D-shaped grass-covered area (dims 36.6m NE-SW; 29.4m NW-SE) that slopes down slightly to the S. It is defined by an earthen bank and hedge with an outer fosse, but the fosse is replaced by a roadway W-N-ENE. The entrance (Wth of base 2m) is at SSE. 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: 12 December 2017
