On the summit of Carbury Hill (OD 470') and the southernmost of four closely associated sites; a ringbarrow (KD008-005----) c. 85m to the NE, a second ringbarrow (KD008-004----) c. 120m to the NE, all three excavated by Willmot in 1936 under a State financed scheme for the relief of unemployment (1938, 130-42.) A fourth possible ringbarrow (KD008-048----) was recently reported by Jean-Charles Caillere and lies c. 125m NE of KD008-003---- KD0008-003---- is Wilmot’s ‘Site C’. A small, circular, grass-covered mound (diam. 8.2m; H. c. 1m) had a slight depression on its upper surface and had been used for bonfires in the past. The mound was composed of rock rubble mixed with earth. A small rectangular hollow (dims. L c. 0.3m; Wth c. 0.2m; D c. 0.25m) in the bedrock beneath the mound contained the cremation of a juvenile. No grave goods were found but its prominent siting might suggest that it was the earliest of the three monuments here and may date to the Late Bronze Age. The monument was subsequently restored to its pre-excavation shape. Compiled by: Gearóid Conroy Date of revision: 8 June 2023
