The National Monuments Service's description
Located on an E-facing slope. It was described locally (SMR file) in 1967 as a small ring defined by a low mound or bank ‘about 10 feet across’ that had been removed c. 1955 and had been W of a stone (ME006-014002-).
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Meath' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1987). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
