What is recorded here

A possible low cairn, visible in 1984 Bórd Gáis Éireann aerial photographs, lies hidden in reclaimed pasture beside the Morningstar River in County Limerick. It is not marked on historic maps, and a possible barrow waits 145m south. The mound may be a forgotten marker, a burial place, or a boundary stone for an older townland. Its shape has resisted measurement, but it still belongs to the land.
