- WX042-007001 Cairn - burial cairn
Description
Located at the crest of the S-facing slope of the most south-western summit of Forth Mountain and close to Skeater Rock. A cairn of stones (diam. c. 30m) was removed in 1884 when a 'bowl food vessel' was discovered (Ffrench 1895). The cairn was completely removed and its precise location is not known (Culleton 1984, 33-4). Archaeological testing (22E0169) by C. Moriarty c. 45m to the W produce no evidence of the cairn (excavations.ie 2022:024). The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Wexford' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1996). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of revision: 8 February 2016 Amended: 23 December 2022
