What is recorded here

On a long, gentle, S-facing slope. The southern outlier (10m off-line to the NE) of a linear group of nine possible barrows (KD022-090---- to KD022-098----) with a second outlier (KD022-089----) at the N end. Visible on an aerial photograph (DoD 1999). A small, shallow rectangular depression (int. dims. L 6m ESE-WNW; Wth 3.3m; D 0.1-0.4m) is defined by a counterscarp E-N-W and by a low, narrow, earthen bank (Wth 2.4m; int H 0.1m; ext. H 0.1m) along the S. The E limits are poached by livestock and vehicle tracks and whin growth is starting to encroach along the W side. Compiled by: Gearóid Conroy Date of upload: 10 June 2011
