Recorded monuments

• CV017-013 Megalithic tomb - unclassified
  Description

  Situated near the top of a ridge in undulating pasture. Poorly-preserved, the remains appear to be those of a gallery, at least 4.20m long, aligned SW-NE. Two orthostats, 1.40m apart at the SW, may mark the gallery entrance. A third orthostat alongside the southern of these may have formed part of a flat facade. A sidestone stands 1.70m E of the northern entrance stone. A number of displaced stones lie close to the structure which is surrounded by a small, low mound. The tomb must remain unclassified though there are indications that it may be a wedge-tomb. de Valera and O Nuallain 1972, 121, No 20. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cavan' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1995). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of revision: 27 July 2018 See linked document with details from Ruaidhrí de Valera and Seán Ó Nualláin, Survey of the Megalithic Tombs of Ireland. Volume III.

• CV018-005 Megalithic tomb - court tomb
  Description

  Situated towards the bottom of a S-facing slope with a drumlin rising c. 300m to the SW and it is at the head of a small NW-SE valley. This dual court tomb was excavated by H. E. Kilbride-Jones in 1949 (1951). Aligned N-S, both tombs were within the same cairn (dims 24.5m N-S; c. 13.5m E-W). The court at N is U-shaped (dims 6.4m E-W; 4.6m N-S) while the perimeter of the southern court describes two-thirds of a circle (diam. c. 5.5m). The excavator recorded two banks overlying four post-holes closing the N court while a row of three post-holes could have closed the S court. Sockets provide evidence of facades linking both courts to the E kerb of the cairn represented now by a few kerbstones but numerous sockets were recorded in excavation. No evidence of the W side of the cairn was recovered. Each gallery (Wth 1.3-1.75m) is divided by jambs and a low sill into two chambers, the outer in each case being longer and wider than the inner. At the N the outer chamber (L c. 3m) leads to a shorter inner chamber (L c. 2.25m), while at the S the outer chamber is c. 2.6m long and the inner is c. 2.15m. A closed central chamber (L 2.25m) links the ends of both galleries, although it is represented by sockets on the W side. Evidence of paving was noted in the N court and some of the chambers. Traces of fires were also found in some of the chambers. The cremated and inhumed bones in the front chamber of the S gallery and a few teeth found in the closed central chamber during the excavation represent at least three individuals. Part of a Neolithic pottery bowl was also recovered in the outer chamber of the S gallery. (Kilbride-Jones 1951, 75-88; de Valera and Ó Nualláin 1972, 122-3, No. 22) This monument is subject to a preservation order made under the National Monuments Acts 1930 to 2014 (PO no. 179/1946), and is a National Monument in state guardianship (No. 456) accessed from the R191 Shercock to Cootehill oad c. 60m to the S, but there is no convenient safe parking.
