What is recorded here

There are three set stones here. A large stone, 1.8m by 0.25m by 1m high, is aligned E-W. To the S and at right angles to its W end is a second stone, 1.25m by 0.25m by 0.4m in exposed height. The third stone, 0.7m W of the S end of the last, is aligned E-W and measures 0.6m by 0.4m by 0.6m high. This configuration of stones may represent the remains of some form of megalithic monument. Field-clearance debris has been heaped around it. (Davies, ITA Survey, Co. Cavan 1941) The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cavan' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1995). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 22 December 2008
