What is recorded here

This shell midden produced a number of flint objects and seven sherds of a short necked pottery vessel with flat-topped out-turned rim and globular body, which were found in a 'black patch', presumably the remains of a hearth (Raftery 1970, 165-66, fig. 10).

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.
