The National Monuments Service's description
Located at the summit of a NE-SW ridge. This monument is indicated as a curved field bank N-E-S on the 1834 and 1907 editions of the OS 6-inch map. This is a slightly raised circular and grass-covered area (diam. 29.5m) defined by a slight earthen bank and traces of an outer fosse. The original entrance is not identified.
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.
