What is recorded here

Recorded by Brindley and Kilfeather (1993, 8 (entry 56)) as follows: 'three groups of small cairns with kerbs (diam. c. 2m, H c. 0.8m). Masked by dense vegetation at time of inspection.' Following a gorse fire on the mountain in 2010 two distinct cairnfields were identified and the individual cairns were recorded by Ó Murchú (2011, 63-83) as part of a Master's thesis. See the following record numbers for individual cairns: Cairnfield 1: CW026-038----, CW026-039----, CW026-040----, CW026-041----, CW026-043----, CW026-045----, CW026-047----, CW026-048----, CW026-049----, CW026-068---- CW026-050----, CW026-059----; CW026-060----, CW026-061----, CW026-062----, CW026-063----, CW026-064----, CW026-065----, CW026-066----, CW026-067----, CW026-068----, CW026-069----, CW026-070----, CW026-071----, CW026-072----, CW026-073----, CW026-074----, CW026-075----, CW026-076----, CW026-077----, CW026-078----, CW026-079---- and CW026-080----.
