What is recorded here

According to Kinahan (1879-88, 156) a cist containing an urn and ashes was found c. 20m NW of the ring-cairn (WX002-044----) c. 1877. This was probably part of the flat cemetery (WX002-042----). Its precise location is unknown, but it was in an area then occupied as a concentrated settlement, and now developed as a farmyard. It was situated towards the top of a S-facing slope just down from a col between low hills c. 400m to the W and E and c. 40-50m higher than the col.
