What is recorded here

Cairn stands on the ridge between Galtymore and Galtybeg, marking the boundary between Knocknagalty and Drumleagh in County Limerick. Two other boundary cairns flank it eighty and one hundred fifty metres away, forming a quiet line across rough pasture. The mound has vanished from modern satellite views, yet its position remains clear on old maps. It may have guided herds, people or claims long before roads cut through the ridge.
