Situated at the E summit of an E-W ridge that has a number of rises along the ridge. It is depicted faintly as a circular embanked enclosure (ext. diam. c. 45-50) on the 1834 edition of the OS 6-inch map where it is described in gothic lettering as a ‘fort’ and it is represented as an arc of hachures (Chord c. 47m SSE-NNW) with a field bank outside it SSE-SW-NNW on the 1907 edition. This is a raised grass-covered subcircular area (dims 39m N-S; 31m E-W) defined by a scarp (at S: Wth 4-4.3m; H 2.3-2.7m) with a field bank at its base SSW-NNW. There is no visible fosse or entrance. Rath (MO013-004----) is c. 80m to the ENE. 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. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of revision: 22 February 2018 - MO013-004: Ringfort - rath, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CMO013-004----. Located just off the crest of the E-facing summit of an E-W drumlin ridge. This is a circular area (diam. 25m NNE-SSW; 25m WNW-ESE) that slopes down severely to the E defined by an earthen bank and hedge SSE-W-N, but the perimeter is reduced to a scarp (at E: H 1.1m) elsewhere with traces of an outer fosse NW-NE. A stone field wall overlies the perimeter SW-NW. The most likely entrance (Wth of base 1.5m) is at ESE. Rath (MO013-003----) is c. 80m to the WSW. 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.
