What is recorded here

Situated on a rise in a fairly low-lying landscape. A cairn (L c. 21m; Wth 11m) is aligned NNW-SSE. At N a sidestone supports a large displaced roof stone, perhaps representing a chamber opening to the N. Close to this, three set stones represent a subsidiary chamber opening to the W. The monument is unclassified, although it is likely to be either of the court-or portal-tomb classes. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Monaghan' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1986). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of revision: 26 February 2018

Neolithic passage tomb, dating to approximately 3500–2500 BCE. Its alignment and chamber features suggest ritual or funerary significance typical of early megalithic traditions in the region.
