• LE010-002 Megalithic tomb - wedge tomb
  Description

  Located on a S-facing slope at the head of a narrow E-W valley. Three orthostats form a NE-SW chamber, which probably opened to the SW, with a line of kerbstones outside it at NW. It is contained within a grass-covered cairn (dims 9m E-W; 6m N-S). (de Valera and Ó Nualláin 1972, 59-60) 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.

• LE010-002002 Megalithic structure
  Description

  Described by de Valera and Ó Nualláin (1972, 60) as follows: ‘Some 10 m. northwards from the tomb [LE010-002001-] is a small group of stones varying from .30 m. to 1.05 m. in maximum dimension and from .35 m. to .75 m. in height. These stones, which form no recognizable arrangement, are covered by a slab measuring 2.50 m. in maximum dimension. The structure, which may be partly natural, bears a superficial resemblance to a megalithic chamber. The stones are incorporated in the southern side of a rectangular platform or low mound measuring 25 m. long E-W, and 12 m. wide N-S. A pile of stones at the western end of the platform appears to be the ruins of a house or hut.’ The remains have been interpreted as representing those of megalithic tomb (Kytmannow, Kahlert and Hunt 2010).
