What is recorded here

On a gentle E-facing slope in grassland. Known locally as ‘Muilleann Sidhe’ (McCaffrey 1952, 251, no. 51). This roughly circular flat-topped mound (diam. 6m; H c. 1m) is revetted by a single course of large limestone blocks at its base. The E sector has been disturbed and some bone (human?) projects through the soil. McCaffrey (ibid., no. 51a) also located a house to this spot - see GA104-267002-.

Neolithic mound barrow, dating to approximately 2500–2000 BCE. Its construction and revetment with large limestone blocks indicate a significant communal effort, typical of ritual or burial practices in early Irish prehistory.
