What is recorded here

Situated at the summit of Mount Leinster, the highest peak of the NE-SW Blackstairs Mountains. This is a circular cairn (diam. 15m; surviving H 1-1.5m) composed of granite stones (dims. c. 0.4m x 0.2m). It was disturbed by the erection of a trigonometric station since 1945 (SMR file). The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Wexford' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1996). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload/revision: 5 April, 2012
