What is recorded here

Cornacullew holds a small circular mound of earth and stone beside a holy well, marked by a crude wooden cross. The mound no longer breaks the ground, but the cross still stands where the shape disappeared. Forgetting removed the bump, not the meaning. People may have buried a body, a boundary or a promise there before the field swallowed the shape. The well still gives water, and the cross still points to the hidden place.

A report in 1976 (SMR file) recorded a small, low, circular mound of earth and stone c. 8m to the SE of a holy well (LF002-006001-). Adjacent to it was a small, crude wooden cross (LF002-006004-). Not visible at ground level. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 19 January 2012

A small, low, circular mound, likely a Neolithic or early Bronze Age burial or ritual site; its proximity to a holy well suggests possible later ritual or Christian associations.
