Oliver Brown Monument — Report the wrong picture

What is recorded here

Freestanding limestone monument, built c.1720. Square plan with steeply pitched pyramidal cap having string course below. Random rubble stone walls. Square-headed recess to south with stone lintel. Built into drystone boundary wall close to Cahertymore crossroads.

This 'laght', from the Irish word leacht, is traditionally used to refer to a pile of stones over a grave. The monument may have been erected following the death of a local man, Oliver Brown, when he was thrown from his horse at this spot. It is an unusual feature of the visual character and heritage of the area.

This does not grant access. Most recorded buildings are privately owned; view them only from public ground unless the owner allows entry.
