Cairn

Cairn, unclassified

What is recorded here

Cairn is a cairn (unclassified) in Knockaunnaglokee, County Waterford, Ireland. The local name Pairc a' Leachta, which means the field of the cairn, points to a burial mound in that area. The mound itself has not been found, so the name remains the only evidence for the site.
According to Power (1952, 162) a place called Pairc a' Leachta - the field of the cairn - at Knockaunnaglokee could indicate a cairn. It remains unlocated. Power, Rev. P.
