- LE020-001 Boundary mound
Description
Marked only on the 1907 edition of the OS 6-inch map where it is described in italic lettering as a 'Mound', and situated in blanket bog on the summit of a NW-SE mountain ridge bordering counties Leitrim and Roscommon. It is not visible at ground level, and was undoubtedly a boundary mound set up by the Ordinance Survey. It is the same as (RO002A-002----).

- RO002-001 Mass-rock
Description
On a steep S-facing slope overlooking a shelf on the S-facing slope of Corrie Mountain. Marked similarly on the 1837 ed. of the OS 6-inch map. Rectangular slab (dims. 1.4m x 0.9m; T 0.6-0.75m) with a flat upper surface supported by a triangular base of stones (dims. 1.8m x 1.4m). The structure has a straight SE edge (H 1-1.5m) and a metal crucifix with some offerings lie on the upper stone. It was regarded as a megalithic structure (Borlase 1897, vol. 1, 196) but this can be discounted (de Valera and O'Nuallain 1972, 41). The possible mass-rock (RO002-001001-) is c. 5m to the E.

- RO002-001001 Mass-rock
Description
On a steep S-facing slope overlooking a shelf on the S-facing slope of Corrie Mountain. Rectangular stone (dims. c. 1m x c. 1m; H c. 0.5m) with a flat upper surface lying on the ground c. 5m E of the Mass rock (RO002-001----). It is probably a mass-rock, the name being derived from 'Clogh beannaithe', the blessed stone. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 24 August 2010
