What is recorded here
Shirley (1845, 179) records that 'on a rising ground, human bones enclosed with rough stones in the form of a coffin have often been turned up, with the plough'. A flanged bronzed axe found in one of these graves was acquired by the National Museum of Ireland (Lucas 1968, 103). The exact location is not known.
