Tumulus, Tullowbeg is a Bronze Age round barrow, likely dating to the early to middle first millennium BCE. Its significance lies in contributing to the understanding of burial practices and settlement patterns in the Carlow region during the Bronze Age.
This remains an important historical record, but the official description says the monument is no longer visible or has been destroyed. The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
