What is recorded here
'These sites are situated on top of a limestone reef approximately 300m to the west of the cairn/complex [KE038-101----]. These sites have been much denuded because of an attempt to reclaim this reef which is located on a large dairy farm, and have been much trampled by cattle. Also a substantial N-S running stone wall has neatly bisected this reef, and probably utilised stone from the enclosures and banks in its construction. The top of this reef affords unobstructed views in all directions, but the dominant aspect is primarily southwards......in the field to the west of the field wall is a semi-recumbent limestone slab 1.50m in length, 0.50m in width and 1.00m in height. It may prove to be the remnants of a megalithic structure.'
Compiled by Michael Connolly for the Archaeological Survey of Ireland as part of a survey of the Lee Valley area in 1996-97.
