The National Monuments Service's description
Pre-development testing in 1999 revealed a very low mound which covered three east-west oriented skeletons (Purcell 2000, 83). The remains were those of two adult males and one adolescent aged 12-16 years. The site is thought to be an Early Christian burial mound.
