In 1969, human remains were disturbed during quarrying operations in a large sandpit in a flat field. Disturbed bones together with the lower legs which had remained in the sandpit face were collected and subsequently reburied locally before they could be investigated archaeologically. Portion of a shallow burial-pit survived (dims. L 0.8m; Wth 0.6m; D 0.8m below ground surface) and, according to the finders, the body had been orientated E-W (Cahill and Sikora 2011, Vol 2, 482)

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
The map shows the centre of the officially named townland area, not the monument. The government record does not identify the exact monument point.
