What is recorded here

A Registered Historic Monument. On a hilltop with panoramic views in all directions. A well-defined, possibly landscaped, low (2m at S-3m at W) circular (base diam. 35m), flat-topped (diam 16m) steep-sided earthen mound. A modern farm road bordered by wooden post-and-rail fencing skirts the base NE-S-WSW. There is no trace of the two low earthen banks on the S limits of the summit, noted in 1972 (SMR file). A small concrete Trigonometrical Station is built into the upper surface. Compiled by: Gearóid Conroy Date of upload: 26 November 2012

This remains an important historical record, but the official description says the monument is no longer visible or has been destroyed.

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
