The National Monuments Service's description
Located on the summit of a drumlin. A circular earthwork is depicted on an estate map of the Barony of Cremorne by Brownrigg and Longfield (1790) in NLI (21. F. 27). No archaeological features are visible on aerial image (OSAP, 1995 and 2000, 2005; Bing c. 2013).
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.
