What is recorded here

In relatively level pasture. Uncovered c. 1930. Recorded by Waddell (1990, 111) as comprising a double cist, each of which reportedly contained a crouched skeleton covered by a single capstone (1.52m x 1.31m). The capstone bore markings that reportedly were 'figure carvings and inscriptions which are believed to be ogham' (The Irish Times, 3 August 1935). However, a report in 1935 dismissed these as being 'no doubt due to the plough' (NMI File). Not visible at ground level. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 5 March 2012
