What is recorded here

Mound in Farranamanagh, deerpark (horeabbey Par.) is a mound in Farranamanagh, deerpark (horeabbey Par.), County Tipperary, Ireland. Tipperary South Riding museum field reports describe a sub-circular mound with drystone revetment, damaged on the north by trees planted there roughly 100 to 200 years ago. The description matches a similar cairn in Mogh townland so closely that the Farranamanagh entry may be an erroneous assignment rather than a distinct monument.

There is a reference in the Tipperary South Riding museum field reports which describes a 'sub-circular mound with drystone revetment. Damaged on north by trees there planted (c. 100-200 years ago)'. This cairn is assigned to Deepark/Farranamanagh townlands on OS 6-inch sheet 60. However, the description is very similar to that of the cairn (TS060-038----) in Mogh townland and may have been erroneously ascribed to the wrong townland.

A sub-circular drystone cairn, likely dating to the Bronze Age. Its significance lies in its revetment construction and the evidence of historical land use changes due to tree planting.
