Description
Situated on an E-facing slope overlooking a bog. First identified in centre-line testing (05E0983) for a new line of the N4 (O’Connor et al. 2005, 27), and later fully resolved (E003295) as a part of Clooncolry 1. An extensive mound of broken and burnt stone (dims 9m E-W; 6.8m N-S; max. T 0.2m) covered a pit and three troughs. The principal feature is a circular pit (diam. 1.8-1.9m; max. D 0.6m) with a flat base which was filled with four layers including a grey clay providing a waterproof sealing layer. A fragment of a polished stone axe was recovered from the pit and a sample from the fill produced a C14 date of 3825 +- 59 BP (2470-2060 cal. BC), placing it at the start of the Early Bronze Age. Just to the N a D-shaped trough (dims 2.4m x 1.2m; D 0.6m) had three layers, including a sealing layer of grey clay. A second trough (dims 1.9m x 0.9m; D 0.25m) with three fills produced a C14 date of 3890+-30 BP (2470-2280 cal. BC) which is very close to the other date. A third trough (dims 2m x 1.3m; D 0.12m) was filled with burnt stones but the upcast from its excavation was nearby.

- LE035-045002 Burnt mound
Description
Situated on an E-facing slope overlooking a bog. First identified in centre-line testing (05E0983) for a new line of the N4 (O’Connor et al. 2005, 27), and later fully resolved (E003295) as a part of Clooncolry 1. An area of burnt and broken stone (dims 6m x 5.5m; T 0.05-0.18m) had been truncated by later drains on almost every side and may have been a redeposit. It overlay an oval trough (dims 1.5m x 1.2m; D 0.08-0.24m) filled with a sandy layer over a more stoney one which produced a C14 date of 3765+-39 (2300-2030 cal. BC).

- LE035-045003 Burnt mound
Description
Situated on a rise on an E-facing slope overlooking a bog. First identified in centre-line testing (05E0983) for a new line of the N4 (O’Connor et al. 2005, 27), and later fully resolved (E003295) as a part of Clooncolry 1. An area of burnt and broken stone (diam. 5.5-6m) was badly eroded and lay over a number of natural hollows in the subsoil. A sample from one of the hollows produced a C14 date of 3005+-30 (1380-1120 cal. BC) placing it in the Middle Bronze Age. Another burnt spread (dims 3m x 2.5m) nearby was cut by a modern ditch on its W side, but it had no related features.
