Description
Situated on a shelf on a N-facing slope. It is depicted as a wooded enclosure incorporated in a NW-SE wooded boundary (Wth c. 10m) of the demesne of Monalty House, which is c. 320m to the N, on the 1834 and 1907 editions of the OS 6-inch map, and it has been adapted as a tree-ring. This is an oval scrub-covered area (dims 38m NW-SE; 33m NE-SW) planted with mature deciduous trees, which is defined by an earthen bank (Wth 3-4.4m; int. H 0.3-0.4m; ext. H 0.6-1.1m), with slight traces of an external fosse W-NW. The perimeter is incorporated into the wooded ornamental boundary SSE-W and N-NE. The original entrance is not identified. 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: 31 July 2017
