What is recorded here

Cairn is a small stone-and-peat mound in County Carlow, no taller than a knee, yet it still stands among a larger group of similar marks. Ó Murchú recorded it in 2011, giving shape to what might have faded into ordinary ground. People may have built it to remember, divide, worship or simply mark a path through dark land. The stones still protrude, waiting for someone to wonder why they were set there.

A small cairn (diam. c. 3m; max. H c. 0.4m) visible as a mound of peat from which stones protrude. Recorded by Ó Murchú (2011, 78) as part of a Master's thesis (Survey number: C29). One of a large group of cairns (see CW026-019----). Compiled by: Claire Breen Date of upload: 08 November 2013

A Neolithic cairn; part of a widespread funerary tradition in early Irish prehistory. Its location within a larger group suggests a regional ceremonial or burial landscape.
