Located on a low rise in a low-lying undulating landscape. There is a local tradition of a cave in the interior of rath (MO029-009001-), which may have been a souterrain.
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.
