Cist in Drummoher, County Clare

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.

What is recorded here

Within the centre of a cairn (CL016-156002-). This cist is defined by two parallel stones, one on the N side (L0.75m; Wth 0.05m) and one on the S side (L 1.1m; Wth 0.05m); both protrude just above the ground. While parallel, the stones, which are 0.85m apart, are not exactly opposite each other. A smaller stone is visible on both sides further to the W, it is unclear if the cist extended further in this direction.

From the National Monuments Service (Archaeological Survey of Ireland) record CL016-156002
