What is recorded here
Indicated sits on a NE-SW ridge in County Leitrim, marked as an OS Trigonometric Point on the 1907 map. The flat-topped earth and stone mound measures 5.5m across its base and rises 0.7m, with a slight summit depression possibly caused by a height marker. Panoramic views stretch in every direction, inviting anyone who climbs there to stand inside the exact point the surveyors needed.
