Habitation site in Gibberpatrick,rathangan

Situated on the flood-plain of a small N-S stream and close to the stream at a point where it curves to the W. A number of prehistoric flints and worked stones have been recovered on the land, largely from this area. They include two stone axes, a hollow-based arrowhead, some flint cores, a crude loom-weight and a possible hone-stone. The soil is said to be black clay with lenses of shell and organic material.
