What is recorded here
Towards the S edge of the summit of Bailey Mór mound/sandhill (MA023-014003-).
A subcircular or subrectangular setting of stones (max. dims. 3. 3-4m) with two upright stones at its N edge, possibly marking an entrance passage extending NE−SW. Immediately to S is a smaller, subcircular area (c. 2m E−W; c. 3m N−S) defined by a setting of low stones (ITM 456995 822538).
The remains are meagre and poorly defined, barely protruding from the grass-covered sandy surface of the mound. They may be the remains of houses.
