The National Monuments Service's description
This record was formerly classed as 'Cairn (s)' in the SMR (1988). Marked 'Piles of Stones' on the 1927 OS 6-inch map, these were not marked on the 1840-1 OS 6-inch map as the 'piles of stones' were placed here as markers for townland boundaries to assist in creating the 1840-1 maps.
