What is recorded here

Tumulus is a cairn, unclassified in Cummeen, County Sligo, Ireland. It is a conical mound 7 metres across and 2.5 metres high, built from unshaped field stones. The mound sits at the centre of an embanked enclosure and is partly covered with earth, moss and brambles. Timoney (1984) suggested it and a nearby barrow may be nineteenth-century demesne monuments on the Ormsby demesne.

Within an enclosure (SL014-147002-) at the centre of an embanked enclosure (SL014-047001-). This cairn consists of a stone-built conical mound (diam. 7m; H 2.5m), constructed of unshaped field stones of large (L 0.44m; Wth 0.25m) to medium (L 0.2m; Wth 0.15m) size. It is partly covered with earth, moss and brambles. Timoney (1984, 324, no. 16) suggests that this and a nearby possible barrow (SL014-048----) may be 'nineteenth century demesne monuments on the Ormsby demesne'. Compiled by: Patrick F.
