Cairn

Cairn, boundary cairn

What is recorded here

No stone remains at the marked point, only a bare ridge dropping south toward Truskmore Mountain. The missing marker turns the boundary into a ghost line, forcing anyone who walks it to invent the exact place where Treanakillew stops and Largandoon begins.
Marked only on the 1909 ed. of the OS 6-inch map where it is described as a ‘Stone’ on the boundary between Treanakillew and Largandoon, c. 40m S of the boundary with Co. Sligo. It is located towards the top of a S-facing slope of a ridge extending SW for Truskmore Mountain. There is no evidence of a stone that might have been used by the Ordinance Survey as a boundary marker. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 22 December, 2015
