Barrow

In gently undulating wet pasture, on the W edge of a small barrow cemetery, with a ring-barrows (TS065-007002-; TS065-007003-) c. 20m to the NNW and c. 100m to the NE respectively and ditch barrows (TS065-007004-; TS065-007005-; TS065-007006-; TS065-007007-) c. 105m to the E, c. 90m to the E, c. 95m to the SE and c. 50m to the NE respectively. Identified on an aerial photograph (Ordnance Survey 2404/3). Circular area (diam. 5m) enclosed by an earthen scarp (Wth 0.7m; H 0.1m) with a shallow fosse (Wth at base 0.6m) and an external low broad earthen bank (int. H 0.1m; overall Wth 1m). The W half of the circuit is better preserved while the E half is barely visible at ground level. The interior is level and clear of overgrowth.

A ring-barrow, likely dating to the Early Bronze Age, associated with a small barrow cemetery; such monuments are significant for understanding burial practices and settlement patterns in prehistoric Ireland.
