Recorded monuments
- SL012-080 Megalithic tomb - unclassified
Description
Recorded by Ó Nualláin (1989, 27) as follows: 'This destroyed monument was first shown on the 1913 edition of the OS 6-inch map. It stood on flat pasture land about 2.5km to the NW of Skreen village. Rock outcrops occur 500m to the S. On our initial visit to this site in 1951 we recorded a mound about about 20m in length aligned E-W. About a dozen stones, many apparently in situ, protruded from the mound. Two of these, at the E, seemed to have been a pair of jambs. The monument had been completely removed by the time we returned to the site in 1963 and its stones lay against a nearby fence. It must remain unclassified but its length and the presence of two likely jambs at the E suggest it may have been a court-tomb.'

- SL012-081 Earthwork
Description
Situated in level pasture. Not marked on any edition of the OS 6-inch maps. Included in the RMP (1995) as a possible enclosure on the basis of an aerial photograph (ACP V203/75-6; Roll 128, print 10). A gently domed D-shaped area (c. 18m E-W; c. 12m N–S; H 1.3m) defined on the straight side to S by a modern E-W field fence. This may be a naturally-occurring feature rather than a genuine antiquity.
