- LE036-012: Megalithic tomb - portal tomb, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CLE036-012----. Situated at the crest of a NW-facing slope. The tomb on McKenna’s land was widely known locally and it was described in the local folklore during the 1930s (IFC: vol. 0214, 332; 0220, 23-4; 022, 588-9). A large stone (dims 3m NW-SE; 2.6m NE-SW; T 0.2-0.4m) is resting on a single orthostat (dims 0.8m x 0.2m; H 1m) with another orthostat (dims 1m x 0.2m; H 1.2m) adjacent. The back of the large stone rests on the ground on the W side of a N-S field bank. The stone is surrounded by an overgrown cairn (diam. c. 20m; H c. 1m) which survives only W of the field bank. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Leitrim' compiled by Michael J. Moore (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2003). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 23 September 2008 Amended: 7 January 2020

Everytownland reads the registered freehold land and the statutory boundaries of Tailte Éireann, the national zoning, planning file and heritage records of the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage, and the Residential Property Price Register. A parcel is the land of a title, not an address. The owner's name is in the Land Registry of Tailte Éireann: a copy of the folio can be ordered on landdirect.ie, for a fee; this site names no owner. A price is the price recorded for a past sale, not a valuation.
