What is recorded here
Mystery and wonder provoke human imagination, but invention must retreat when evidence is missing. Better to preserve the gap than populate it with fiction.
The following description is derived from both the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Louth' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1986) and the 'Archaeological Survey of County Louth' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1991). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
