Lismullin
RMP No ME032:053
Inventory No -
Site Type Barrow

Distance 140m from proposed motorway

Approximately a third of a circular enclosure (projected diameter c.60m) defined by a low bank and internal fosse
has been incorporated into the field boundary; the rest has been removed by ploughing.
This feature is shown as a circular enclosure (diameter c.50m), planted with trees, on the current edition of the OS six-inch map.

Source for text  -

 

a barrow ?-  - it is not planted with trees - and I don't think it is 140 metres from the motorway - I think it is 60-70 metres

it is not as described - it is about the same diameter as the distance from the road take
( see pics below)

 

 

 

source for maps -

I think it is about 30 metres from the healing well to the motorway , another 30 from the other side of the motorway to where the stream goes into the Gabhra river and just over another 30 to the centre of the " barrow" on the other side

 - this needs checking
