The National Monuments Service's description
Marked 'Fort' on OS 1836 ed. and 'Site of' on 1876 ed. The site apparently comprised a roughly circular area (int. diam. c. 39m) enclosed by a drystone wall. The site is divided into two apparently roughly equal portions by a field boundary running ENE-WSW, S of which there are no visible remains. From NNE-ENE the wall is quite substantial. From W-NW-NNE its outline may be identified as a low rise.
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.
