Barrow, mound barrow

What is recorded here

Circular mound of earth and stone with possible cist (L. 2.40m) in centre (Price 1934, 40). Monument was formerly covered in forest. Trees were removed post-2004. Monument is in relatively good condition and its form is in accordance with that recorded by Price. Faint traces of a shallow external fosse surround the mound. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Wicklow' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1997). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 17 December 2008
Mound barrow, likely dating to the Early Bronze Age. Its survival in relatively good condition provides insight into funerary practices and burial mounds in the region.

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
