Barrow

Barrow, ring-barrow

What is recorded here

Situated in fields to the W of Nenagh Mart, behind St Patrick's Terrace on O'Growney Street. A number of nine possible barrows (TN020-099/008) show up on aerial photographs (OSAP 3585, 16.5.1986). These could also have been formed from cattle feeding rings, though the variation in dimensions suggests otherwise. No surface remains visible, ring-barrow only visible on aerial photograph (OSAP 3585, 16.5.1986). Compiled by: Caimin O'Brien. Date of upload: 22 September 2008
A ring-barrow, likely dating to the Early Bronze Age, associated with a group of possible barrows identified through aerial photography; its significance lies in contributing to the understanding of burial practices and settlement patterns in the Nenagh area during the Bronze Age.
