The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on the SW bank of the canalised NW-SE Clonard River with the stream immediately to the E. This feature is not depicted on any OS map. This is a slightly raised circular grass-covered area (diam. 28m E-W; 26.5m N-S) defined by a slight scarp (max. H 0.5m). There is no visible bank, fosse or entrance.
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.
