Description
Located just off the crest of the N-facing slope of a small N-S drumlin ridge. This rath is depicted on McCrea’s map of County Monaghan (1793) and on OS 6-inch maps. It is a circular grass-covered area (diam. 25.4m ENE-WSW; 23.4m NNW-SSE) that slopes down to the NE defined by an overgrown earthen bank (at E: Wth 3.8m; int. H 0.8m; ext. H 1.9m), and an outer drain ESE-SSW but there is no visible fosse. The entrance (Wth of base 2.6m) is at ENE. 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. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of revision: 23 February 2018
