What is recorded here

Situated on a N facing slope with extensive views to the E, N and W. In 1978 two burials were found during removal of topsoil from a quarry (Kelly 1987-8, 73). One was a crouched inhumation accompanied by a Food Vessel and contained within a trapezoidal cist. A sample of the bone produced a date of 3765+-BP which placed it in the early Bronze age (Kelly 1998, 113-116). Compiled by: Geraldine Stout and Padraig Clancy Revised upload on: 28 July 2018
