Located at the summit of a small N-S drumlin ridge. A circular embanked enclosure (ext. diam. c. 40m) is depicted here only on the 1834 edition of the OS 6-inch map where it is described in gothic lettering as a ’fort’. This is a grass-covered area (diam. 31m E-W; 27.5m N-S) defined by the vegetation mark (Wth 3m) of a fosse NW-E-SE and a curved field bank elsewhere. There is no indication of an entrance. 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. Revised by: Michael Moore Date of revision: 22 June 2018 - MO020-009: Ringfort - rath, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CMO020-009----. Situated on a small hillock in a low-lying landscape between drumlins. A circular embanked enclosure (ext. diam. c. 40m) with trees is depicted on the 1834 edition of the OS 6-inch map where it is described in gothic lettering as a ’fort’. This is a circular area (diam. 30.5m E-W; 30m N-S) planted with deciduous trees which is defined by an earthen bank (at E: Wth of base 2.1m; int. H 0.5m; ext. H 1m) that has an outer stone facing N-S-W, but the bank is reduced to a stone-faced scarp elsewhere. There is no visible fosse or entrance. This is probably a rath that has been re-used as a tree-ring. 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. Revised by: Michael Moore Date of revision: 22 June 2018 - MO020-010: Crannog, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CMO020-010----.
