Recorded monuments
- CV034-058 Cairn - unclassified
Description
Situated on the second highest hill in the Loughanlea range affording panoramic views in all directions except to the NE. The cairn is located immediately N of a fenced area containing a telecommunications mast and associated structures. From S-SW-W the perimeter of the cairn has been destroyed where the fence truncates the base of the monument. The remainder of the monument is well-preserved and it consists of circular cairn composed of medium and large stones (diam. at base c. 16m). It was probably originally dome-shaped in profile and ranges in height from 0.9m at NNE to 1.8m at SE. The lower portions are partially obscured by heather. An inspection in December 2000 recorded a number of holes in the top of the cairn, presumably made by treasure hunters. Compiled by: Paul Walsh Date of upload: 20 June 2012 This monument is subject to a preservation order made under the National Monuments Acts 1930 to 2014 (PO no. 5/2001).
