What is recorded here

A small, low mound (diam. c. 7m; H. 0.5m), fully excavated by O'Riordáin (1950, 254: Site No. 3). Although composed mainly of a brown soil, the excavator remarked on the quantity of charcoal incorporated in the mound material at different levels. No burial was discovered and the finds included a flint scraper and two flint chips. Compiled by: Gearóid Conroy Date of upload: 10 June 2011
