Cairn

Cairn, unclassified

What is recorded here

Tom Coffey marked a small cairn on his map, but the slope keeps only a smooth five-metre dish of earth. That uncertain line still occupies the survey, giving an empty pasture the shape of a remembered event.
Near the top of a NE-facing limestone slope in rough pasture with wide views out N-ESE, and within a large multiperiod field system (CL010-064001-). Listed as ‘Cairn’ in the RMP (1996) on the basis of a map annotation by Tom Coffey, indicating a ‘small cairn’ (SMR file). No visible remains, only a natural subcircular feature (diam. c. 5m) of no archaeological significance. Compiled by: Conn Herriott and Gearóid Conroy Date of upload: 13 June 2013
A cairn of uncertain classification and date, likely prehistoric; its significance is not clearly defined due to lack of detailed excavation or typological analysis.
