What is recorded here

The following description is derived from both the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Louth' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1986) and the 'Archaeological Survey of County Louth' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1991). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 17 July 2007 Section of drystone-faced earthen bank (Wth c. 2-5m, H 1m) passing along the N side of a mearing which divides the townlands of Cookstown and Tattyboys. This is reputedly a part of the Pale boundary, but is dismissed as such by Tempest (CLAJ 1931, 435).

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