What is recorded here

Shirley (1845, 179) records that 'on a rising ground, human bones enclosed with rough stones in the form of a coffin have often been turned up, with the plough'. A flanged bronzed axe found in one of these graves was acquired by the National Museum of Ireland (Lucas 1968, 103). The exact location is not known. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Monaghan' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1986). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of revision: 28 June 2017
