Identified by O'Kelly (1978, 48) as Site Z1 in his Guide to Newgrange. See attached pdf showing contour plan of Newgrange which shows location of tombs Z (ME019-044004-) and Z1, taken from Kelly et. al. 1978, 253. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Meath' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1987). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 07 November 2013
