What is recorded here
Forradh is a barrow in County Meath, Ireland. It has a raised subcircular area about 24m wide. A fosse and two other banks define it. An entrance may be at the east. A standing stone sits on top. The shape still holds its old boundary, waiting for someone to remember what it marked.
The following description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Meath' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1987). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
