Located N of the summit of a NE-SW drumlin ridge. This was described in 1968 as a raised and slightly dished D-shaped grass and rush-covered area (dims 39m NW-SE; 28.8m NE-SW) that sloped down slightly to the NE (H 1.4m). It was defined by an earthen bank (at SW: Wth 5m; int. H 0.4m; ext. H 1.4m) SSW-N, with traces of a fosse outside it W-N and a farm track SSW-W. The perimeter was represented by a field bank with farm buildings immediately outside it SE-SSW, and the monument was cut at E by a NW-SE field bank. The original entrance was not identified. The monument had been removed by 2000 (OSAP). 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: 13 December 2017

Situated towards the bottom of the E-facing slope of a NE-SW ridge. This was described in 1967 as a raised subcircular grass and scrub-covered area (dims 30m N-S; 25.5m E-W) rising towards the centre (H above field 2.8-3.2m) defined by an overgrown scarp (at N: Wth 1.7m; H 1.5m), with a berm (at N: Wth 5.6m) on top of the scarp SW-N. An original entrance was not identified and there was an old grass-covered quarry hole in the E quadrant. The monument had been removed by 2000 (OSAP). 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: 13 December 2017

Everytownland reads the registered freehold land and the statutory boundaries of Tailte Éireann, the national zoning, planning file and heritage records of the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage, and the Residential Property Price Register. A parcel is the land of a title, not an address. The owner's name is in the Land Registry of Tailte Éireann: a copy of the folio can be ordered on landdirect.ie, for a fee; this site names no owner. A price is the price recorded for a past sale, not a valuation.
