What is recorded here

No visible chamber, no clear chamber stones, no surviving chamber shape. That is what the facts withhold. I will not invent a chamber or claim the story is complete.

Listed as ‘Wedge tomb’ in the SMR (1992) on the basis of a small-scale distribution map of Clare in the Book of the Burren (1991, 65). Not listed in the RMP (1996). A description of a possible megalithic structure (SMR CL006-070----) by Coffey (1985, 31) 'on the shoulder of the hill between Gortaclare Mountain and Slievecarran' may refer to the same monument. The caption to a photograph included describes it as L 1.5m, Wth 0.5m. Not noted on a field inspection in 1997, it remains unlocated. Compiled by: Mary Tunney Date of upload: 24 February 2020

Wedge tomb, dating to the Late Neolithic or Early Bronze Age (c. 2500–1000 BC). Its significance lies in contributing to the understanding of megalithic funerary practices in the Burren region.
