Carrowkilleen Court Tombs


Map Reference: G083168 (1083, 3168)



Carrowkilleen Court Tombs are set within a huge cairn and there are at least three courts and possibly four. At one end of the cairn is a large double-court tomb with one of the galleries having a side chamber.



At the other end of the cairn, and separate from the larger structure, is a single-court tomb with half the court remaining. The area between the galleries in the double-court tomb is confused.



It is possible that there is here a smaller double-court tomb and a single-court tomb. The total length of the cairn is about 50m.
