What is recorded here
Described by de Valera and Ó Nualláin (1972, 60) as follows: ‘Some 10 m. northwards from the tomb [LE010-002001-] is a small group of stones varying from .30 m. to 1.05 m. in maximum dimension and from .35 m. to .75 m. in height. These stones, which form no recognizable arrangement, are covered by a slab measuring 2.50 m. in maximum dimension. The structure, which may be partly natural, bears a superficial resemblance to a megalithic chamber. The stones are incorporated in the southern side of a rectangular platform or low mound measuring 25 m. long E-W, and 12 m. wide N-S. A pile of stones at the western end of the platform appears to be the ruins of a house or hut.’ The remains have been interpreted as representing those of megalithic tomb (Kytmannow, Kahlert and Hunt 2010).
