What is recorded here

According to Carrigan (1905, vol. 3, 371), ‘On Mr. Drennan’s farm in Ovenstown there is a field called “Rillig,” in which there is a very ancient graveyard. Its history is entirely unknown’. There is no burial ground indicated on the 1st (1839) ed. OS 6-inch map or on the 1947 revision. The location of this burial ground in Ovenstown townland is unknown.

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.
