Description
Located on the summit of a NNE-SSW ridge. A circular enclosure is depicted at Tonyshandey on McCrea’s map of Co. Monaghan (1793). This was described in 1967 as an overgrown circular area (diam. c. 35m) defined by an earthen bank (at SSE: Wth of base 5.2m; Wth of top 1.2m; int. H 0.5m; ext. H 2.4m) and an outer fosse or drain (Wth of top 2.1-2.5m; Wth of base 1-1.5m; ext. D 0.7m at N to 1.1m at SSE). There is an entrance (Wth of base 2.5m) and causeway (Wth of to 1.6m) at SE. The interior is now grass-covered (Bing 2013). 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: 30 August 2017
