The National Monuments Service's description

Situated at the SW-facing slope of a low NW-SE spur. Two adjoining enclosures are marked on McCrea’s map of County Monaghan (1793) at Toneyellida, but they are not recorded on any other map and the precise location of this western feature is not known. No archaeological feature is visible at ground level in pasture.

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.

Date of revision: 6 December 2017
