Located on top of a small drumlin. OS Memoirs record that 'two enormous boulders forming a portion of a Giant's grave, still represent the monument of the Bard' (RIA, Box 49, Aghabog Parish, p.8). This may be the 'cromlech' which was known locally as Fir Breaga – false men, and referred to by O'Donovan writing in the 1830s (P 132) (Herity 2012, 198). The location was identified by Oliver Davies in the 1940s (SMR file) where a number of large stones were extant at the meeting point of three fields and where some large boulders are incorporated into the field boundaries. 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 a rise in a slight col with higher ground to the WSW (c. 220m), E (c. 400m) and SE (c. 350m) but the E end of Rafinny Lough is c. 200m to the N. It is described as a ‘Gravel Pit’ in italic lettering on the 1834 edition of the OS 6-inch map. This is a raised circular, grass-covered area (diam. c. 30m E-W; c. 30m N-S; 21m) defined by an earthen bank (Wth 3.7m; int. H 0.5m) NE-S-W and by a road bank elsewhere. At the centre is a domed area (diam. 8m; H c. 0.5m). What is described locally to be a gravestone is said to have been found here but its present location is not known.
