- MO017-048 Ringfort - rath
Description
Situated on the summit of a hill. This rath is depicted as an earthwork on McCrea’s map of County Monaghan (1793) and on the 1834 and 1907 editions of the OS 6-inch map. It is a circular grass-covered area (diam. 30.5m) defined by an earthen bank (at N: Wth of base 3.8m; int. H 0.25m; ext. H 1.5m) that is largely reduced to a scarp (H c. 0.75-c. 1.5m) with no visible fosse. There is a farm track at the base of the scarp SSW-NNW connecting with an entrance (Wth of base 1.2m) at NW. It has become overgrown since 1968 and farm buildings impinge on it at W (OSAP, 2005). 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. Revised by: Michael Moore Date of revision: 8 May 2018
