Garracloon Caher — Report the wrong picture

What is recorded here

In rough elevated S-facing pasture on a small limestone platform (H 2-2.5m) with falling ground to the NW and S and commanding views to NW. Within a large field system (CL005-160001-). Hachured and labelled ‘Garracloon Caher’ on the 1839 and 1916 OS 6-inch maps. Westropp (1911, 355) recorded the ‘slight remains’ of the monument, noting its prominent position. A subcircular cashel (26m N-S; 30m E-W) defined by a partially collapsed stone wall (Wth 1.15m; int. 0.8-1.2m; ext. H 0.6-1.7m). The external stone facing survives in part from NNE to E (H 0.6-1m), and a portion of inner wall-facing survives at the S (H 0.8m) and NNE (H 1.2m). The location of the entrance is unclear and the interior is uneven. Some stones set within the SE quadrant may represent the remnants of an internal feature. A drystone field wall is built over the cashel wall from SE to SW. Compiled by: Mary Tunney and Eve Campbell Date of upload: 22 August 2023
