What is recorded here

There is a reference by J. O'Donovan in 1837 (O'Flanagan 1931, vol. 1, 83) to three crosses on mounds in Gort na Croise in Kilcorkey where a market was held until c. 1770, and to the discovery of a hoard of coins nearby which contained coins of the Stuart kings, but none later than James II. The mounds remain unlocated. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 24 August 2010

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.
