The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on top of a small NW-SE drumlin ridge. This is an oval grass-covered area (dims 32.5m NNW-SSE; c. 25m ENE-WSW) defined by an overgrown earthen bank SE-W (at SW: Wth c. 4m; int. H 1.1m; ext. H 2.5m) that has been largely removed elsewhere. There is no visible fosse or entrance.
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.
