What is recorded here

Situated towards the bottom of a S-facing slope. Subcircular, grass-covered stony mound (dims. 21m N-S; 19m E-W; H 0.6-0.8m) composed of fire-cracked stones with a clay mantle. It was partially excavated (98E0575) as Area 6 of the N25 re-alignment, which recovered evidence of one trough although others may await discovery. The trough was cut through the subsoil and there was no evidence of a wooden lining. (Tierney, Noonan and Richardson, 2008) The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Waterford' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1999). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Compiled by: Michael Moore. Date of upload: 17th December, 2010.
