Cairn

On the summit of Windmill Hill, is a broad low circular cairn, (Diam 40m ; H 1.5m ) commanding extensive views in all directions. The cairn is grass covered and was first reported by Ó Lionáin and Davis having been identified in 2014 from lidar survey and analysis (see attachment DU021-013----_2). On the southern quadrant of the denuded cairn is a windmill (DU021-038----). Both monuments lie directly NNE of an enclosure identified by geophysical analysis (Target 2018) DU021-114----. which itself sits centrally within a ceremonial enclosure DU021-115---- . The cairn is situated off-centre within another enclosure (DU021-116----) which can be traced intermittently following the contours of the ridge on of Windmill hill, possibly representing a hillfort first reported by O’ Lionáin and Davis. Approximately 150m to the SE of the cairn, beyond both enclosing monuments, is a ring-ditch DU021- 117----. Compiled by: Margaret Keane Updated on: 29 November 2018

Burial cairn, likely dating to the Neolithic or early Bronze Age. Its elevated position suggests ritual or symbolic significance, possibly as a territorial marker or ceremonial site.
