Cist in Tobermurry

Cist

What is recorded here

In scrubland, on an elevated limestone outcrop overlooking a marshy area to the N. The area had recently been burnt to clear the scrub. No visible surface trace of the 'cist' is now evident. This cist was discovered in the 1920s and consisted of 'a cist and urn' (NMI) which were destroyed at the time. Compiled by: Denis Power Date of upload: 26 August 2011
A small stone cist, likely dating to the Early Christian or Bronze Age, previously located on an elevated limestone outcrop; its position suggests a possible funerary or ritual function in a landscape with potential for wider archaeological significance.
