MOUND; possibly CHURCH; PENAL SITE: TOBERAKILL

What is recorded here

Toberakill in Kiltober, County Fermanagh, is a scheduled mound that may have hidden a church or served as a penal site, though no exact date or function is recorded. The land may have swallowed worship, punishment or both, depending on which century you ask it about. A mound that deep could hold more than stones; it could hold the reason the stones were buried.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as MOUND; possibly CHURCH; PENAL SITE: TOBERAKILL. Recorded period: UNCERTAIN. Recorded protection: Scheduled. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
