  Description

  Situated on the NW slopes of Tibradden Mountain. A cairn excavated in 1849. Within the cairn a central cist containing a bowl food vessel and cremation enclosed within a circular chamber (diam. c. 3m). The monument was investigated in 1956 as part of conservation works and interpreted as a Bronze Age cairn with centrally-placed cist (Ó hEochaidhe 2003). A partially lintelled passage runs off the chamber in the NNE. A secondary urn burial was found within the cairn (Farrington 1933, 252-4; Price 1940, 121, 133; Waddell 1970, 117). A granite boulder (DU025-023002-) is situated 30m to the SE and is decorated with a cross and figure incised. This monument was subject to a preservation order made under the National Monuments Acts 1930 to 2014 (PO no. 155/1940). It was subsequently taken into Guardianship by the State.
