This possible burnt mound was discovered during archaeological testing for the N4 Collooney to Castlebaldwin Road Project under Ministerial Direction A071 (E005036). Three discrete patches of black charcoal-rich silty clay with frequent heat-shattered sandstone were uncovered in close proximity to each other in a test trench. The deposits (max. dim. 1.5-4m) were 2.5-3m distant from each other, and a modern drain lay between two of the deposits. These remains probably represent a damaged or levelled burnt mound.
