Description
Located at the crest of the SW-facing slope of a drumlin. This feature is not marked as an antiquity on any edition of the OS 6-inch map, but is shown as a curving field bank SSE-W on the 1834 and 1907 editions of the OS 6-inch map. It is also visible on aerial photograph (GSIAP: H 284) from the 1970s and the OSI series of aerial images (2005). This is a large area defined by an earthen bank with an outer fosse S-W (Chord c. 80m), but the perimeter elsewhere is not evident. 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
