Situated on a rise which is on a NE-facing slope. This is a circular grass-covered area (diam. 36m NE-SW; 33m NW-SE) that slopes down to the E (H 1.5m). It is defined by a slight bank (at W: Wth of base 5m; int. H 0.2m; ext. H 0.4m) ESE-W that is largely reduced to a scarp (at E: Wth 2.5m; H 0.5m). The original entrance is not identified. It is skirted by a NNE-SSW field bank E-S.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Meath' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1987). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
