Circular cairn (diam. 30m; max. H 3.5m) on the summit of Church Mountain. The centre of the cairn has been hollowed out to form an enclosure in which there are the foundations of a church (WI015-029001-) and a well (WI015-029003-). Herity (1974, 258) suggests it may be a passage tomb, but there is no trace of a kerb. Three slabs lie in the SW quadrant.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Wicklow' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1997). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.

This remains an important historical record, but the official description says the monument is no longer visible or has been destroyed.
The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
