• CV040-032 Megalithic tomb - court tomb
  Description

  This monument, situated on a flat patch of ground on a W-facing slope, is overgrown and greatly ruined but would appear to be the remains of a dual court tomb. At the NW end of a cairn, 24m long and 1m or so high, there is an upright stone 1.15m high and alongside it a prostrate slab, both apparently entrance jambs of a gallery of which no other trace is visible. Three stones NW of the upright stone represent a court. On the main axis of the cairn and at its SE end, a line of three low orthostats are partly exposed, and at right angles to the southern of these there is another larger example. The latter may be a jamb and the others part of the side of a gallery. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cavan' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1995).
