What is recorded here

At the N end of a narrow valley of pastureland between Gleninagh ‘Mountain’ and Cappanawalla Hill, in the interior of a large cashel (CL002-030002-). A ‘shell midden’ was recorded in this cashel (pers. comm. T. Coffey, SMR file) and listed in the RMP (1996). There was no visible trace of the midden when the cashel was inspected in 1997. Two house sites (CL002-030004- and CL002-030005-) are located within the cashel. Compiled by: Mary Tunney and Ros Ó Maoldúin Date of upload: 9 December 2020

This remains an important historical record, but the official description says the monument is no longer visible or has been destroyed.

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
