- CV013-029 Ringfort - rath
Description
Raised oval area (int. dims. 46.2m NNW-SSE; 36.7m ENE-WSW) enclosed by a low earthen bank which has been modified and incorporated into the field boundary. It has been levelled for a stretch at E but its outline is still identifiable. Original entrance not recognisable. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cavan' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1995). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 22 December 2008
- CV013-031 Megalithic tomb - court tomb
Description
Situated on a hillock in undulating countryside. The monument, greatly ruined, consists of a mound 26m long, 7m wide and 0.75m high incorporating two lengths of gallery structure 7m apart. The mound has been extensively dug in the gap between both. In the western half of the mound the surviving gallery is 5.5m long and almost 2m wide. Two chambers can be recognised here, one to the W, 3.5m long, and the other largely destroyed. At the E end of the mound only two contiguous stones, apparently the N side of a gallery, remain. The overall length of the orthostatic structure would suggest that this was a dual court tomb.
