What is recorded here

Kilbrook mound sits fifty metres south of a holy well, a low grass-covered disc barely forty centimetres high. Cattle have long chewed its edges into a shallow bowl, erasing any sharp boundary between made earth and living field. It may have marked a burial, a boundary or a gift to the well, but livestock and rain have reduced that purpose to a gentle swelle in the pasture.

On level improved pasture c. 50m S of a holy well (KD004-024----). A low, grass covered, sub-circular, earthen mound (diams. 8.3m N-S; 8m E-W; H 0.4m) is heavily poached by livestock and has no visible stone in its composition. It is visible on an aerial photograph (Holton 1985, Fig. 39; SMR file). Compiled by: Gearóid Conroy Date of upload: 10 June 2011
