Heathtown Mound

Artificial Mound

This seemingly has been identified as being potentially a passage grave. However no excavations have been carried out on it. However its close proximity to the henge would suggest that it was of importance. Carrying on from Michanstown keep in the same direction until you come to a crossroads, head right here and about 200m down this road there is gate on the right hand side. You can see the tomb from here.
