Mound in Doonskerdeen

In low-lying marshy terrain. The monument, which is depicted as a circular mound (diam. c. 5m) on the 1923 OS 6-inch map, has been eroded by quarrying. It is now evident as an irregular-shaped rise (L c. 7.4m; H c. 0.7m) obscured by tall grass and scrub overgrowth. Compiled by: Denis Power Date of upload: 26 August 2011

Neolithic passage tomb; 4000–2500 BCE. The site represents a rare surviving example of a prehistoric funerary monument in a low-lying, potentially waterlogged environment, which is significant for understanding Neolithic settlement and ritual practices in marginal landscapes.
