What is recorded here

Two narrow cists lie side by side in the south centre of a Clare cairn, one sunk slightly deeper than the last, its east wall collapsed into the dark. Paul Walsh and Tom Coffey identified them, but the dead who filled them have no names left behind. Perhaps a mother and child, perhaps twins, perhaps two rivals buried together after argument. The stones have kept their shape long enough to refuse forgetting.

Situated in the S centre of a cairn (CL009-163----). Identified by Paul Walsh and Tom Coffey (SMR file). This cist (int. dims. 1.2m E-W; 0.3-0.55m N-S) is sunk into the cairn, with walls of stone slabs set on edge surviving at S-N; the E side has fallen in (total L 1.7m E-W). Another cist (CL009-163003-) is set parallel to this cist immediately to the N. Compiled by: Mary Tunney and Conn Herriott Date of upload: 5 July 2022

Cist in Sheshymore is a small stone burial chamber, likely dating to the Neolithic or Early Bronze Age. Its association with a cairn suggests it is part of a funerary monument, reflecting early burial practices in the region.
