Home  > Creevagh wedge Tomb (aka Leaba Wedge Tomb)

This tomb is signposted 'Leaba Wedge Tomb' and is quite near the road that runs past the Parknabinnia wedge tombs, though it is not visible from the road. There is a court like arrangement in front of the tomb and although many of the stones lie strewn about the chamber itself is quite intact. This is one of the nicest wedge tombs in a secluded location which also has easy access.

This small tomb, a few hundred metres north of Parknabinnia CL67 above, is still partially imbedded in a low cairn and what appears to be its capstone lies broken behind it.

Looking south you can see the remaining slab of an outer walling and the tree now growing from the rear of the tomb. Click on the photo to enlarge

Only slightly smaller than Ballyganner South above, and also in good condition with the roof and sidestones mostly intact. The rear is overgrown and forms part of a low wall which dissapears into the bushes, perhaps it may be the remains of a kerb. Click on the photo to enlarge
