Description
According to Power (1952, 133) in Ringaphuca, 'On the left bank of a little stream falling into the Colligan is the traditional site of an early burial ground. An old road crossed the river by a ford at the same spot, and was continued in an easterly direction'. Though Power's description indicates that the burial ground is located towards the western end of the S bank of the stream, as indicated by the position of the ford on the 25-inch OS map, the precise location of this burial ground is unknown and there was no visible trace at ground level when inspected in 1990. Also there is a possibility that Power was confusing this burial ground with the burial ground (WA031-026----) immediately N of the stream and this reference may in fact relate to that burial ground. The location indicated here should only be considered as indicative of the general area described by Power. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly, Paul Walsh Date of revised upload: 21 February 2017
