The National Monuments Service's description

NMI Topographical files (1930) include letters from a local source which refer to a 'possible ancient burial ground' which might be a megalithic tomb in Rusheen East Td., Kilmovee.
No monument matching this description is known in Rusheen East townland. One possibility is that it refers to a court tomb (MA073-050----) which is located in Carrownlacka townland, to NW of Rusheen East.
