What is recorded here
Cairn is a boundary marker in County Cork, Ireland. The supplied facts describe Skeagh Ring Barrow and Cairn nearby, but they do not state what Cairn marks, when it was built, or why it exists. Invent a claim about Cairn and the claim becomes fiction.
One of five cairns (15193, 15194, 15195, 15192) shown on 1937 OS 6-inch map near top of Carron Mountain (see 11813), marking the Cork-Limerick border. Not located.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 4: North Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2000). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
