The National Monuments Service's description
Raised circular area (int. diam. 50.6m) enclosed by a low, much-denuded earthen bank and a fosse. The site is divided into two unequal portions by a roadway and field boundary running NW-SE. The smaller portion, SW of this, has been levelled and there are no surface remains. Original entrance not recognisable.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cavan' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1995). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
