What is recorded here

Cairn is a small, grassed-over stone platform on a south-facing Galway slope, possibly an ancient house or burial mound. It sits in the corner of a field, dish-shaped and quiet, with faint earth banks stretching thirty metres south. Whatever it marked, it has surrendered its shape to grass and time, leaving only a subtle swelling in the land.

On S-facing slope in undulating grassland. A circular platform (D 8.8m, H 0.75m), in the corner of a field, composed mainly of small grassed-over stones. The top is dished in profile. Possibly a house or, less likely, a barrow. A number of low grassed-over earth and stone banks are also visible c. 30m to S.
