• MO025-031 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  Situated on a rise on the SE-facing spine of a small NW-SE drumlin ridge. This rath is depicted on McCrea’s map of County Monaghan (1793) and on subsequent editions of the OS 6-inch map. It is an oval grass and fern-covered area (dims 35m NNW-SSE; 28m ENE-WSW) that slopes down to the S. It is defined by an earthen bank separated by a fosse or berm from an outer earthen bank, which is largely incorporated into a field bank. There is an entrance (Wth at base 1.7m) in the inner bank at SE. Field banks from NNW; ENE; SSE and SW converge on the centre. 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
