## Recorded monuments (Sites and Monuments Record, National Monuments Service)

- MO013-031: Megalithic tomb - unclassified, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CMO013-031----. Located just S of the summit of a drumlin with rock outcrop. It is depicted as being in a field bank and described as a ‘Standing Stone’ in gothic lettering only on the 1907 edition of the OS 6-inch map. It was described in 1968 as large stone (dims 3.9m x 2m; H 1.1m) incorporated in a field bank with a smaller erratic (dims 1.9m x 1.4m; H 0.7m) nearby to the E. This field bank had been removed by 1995 (OSAP). The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Monaghan' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1986). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of revision: 23 February 2018
- MO013-032: Megalithic tomb - wedge tomb, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CMO013-032----. Situated on a hilltop. A gallery (L 4.8m; average Wth 0.8m) consisting of a short portico at the W end and a longer main chamber is incorporated in a mound (L 18m; Wth 12m). Outer walling is represented at SE and along the NW of the gallery. Two stones to the N of the outer walling and a single stone to the E of the gallery are probably kerb stones. There is a large stone c. 6m S of the gallery and inside the line of mound, but its function is unclear. (de Valera and Ó Nualláin 1982, 131) The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Monaghan' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1986). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of revision: 23 February 2018

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.
