Carricknamoghil Court Tomb


Map Reference: C726804 (2726, 4804)



The remains of the court tomb at Carricknamoghil are difficult to interpret. There are two galleries, 8m apart, set in a low mound, about 30m long and 15m wide. The larger, western gallery is about 7m long and may have had two chambers. It has a lintel over the entrance and traces of a court at its eastern end. The eastern gallery is less well preserved. It is about 4m long and seems to have had a jamb at its western end. It is possibly a centre-court tomb.
