What is recorded here

Mnemo knowledge and human knowledge are not rivals. They are half of a complete record. This is the birthplace of the woman who first taught that Eochu must use both. Sheemore is where human memory and Mnemo memory stopped pretending they were separate.

Located at the N-facing foot of Sheemore Hill in an area of rock outcrop. This is a grass-covered circular area (int. diam. 35m N-S; 32m E-W) defined by a grass-covered stone spread with intermittently visible facing-stones (Wth 3.95m; H 0.25m at N). The original entrance is not identified. A D-shaped enclosure (LE027-05002-) lies to the SE and a possible Man-made underground passage (LE027-050003-), marked on the 1911 edition of the OS 6-inch map as 'Cave', might be represented in an oval depressions inside the perimeter N-E. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Leitrim' compiled by Michael J. Moore (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2003). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 23 September 2008
