Cairn

Situated towards the bottom of a gentle S-facing slope with a WNW-ESE stream to the S, on the early ecclesiastical site known as 'Cíll Eoghan' (Power 1952, 416). Centrally located in the S half of the ecclesiastical enclosure (WA002-040003-) is an overgrown cairn of collapsed material (dims. 7m N-S; 4m E-W; H 1m), which may contain the remains of the church (WA002-040001-). On its W side is a conglomerate double bullaun stone (WA002-040005-). The possible megalithic structures (WA002-040006-) and (WA002-040008-) were adjacent to it to the W and N respectively.
