Gobinay, Cregneish Burial Cist

Archaeology

A Neolithic polished stone axehead was found in stone-lined graves or burial cists at an unlocated site described as; 'Gobinay, ie Gob yn oaie, Headland of the grave. On the summit of the hill about 1750 yards E (sic) of and overlooking Cregneish. Stone-lined graves found containing polished-stone axe-head.' . This place name is not known and not shown on Ordnance Survey maps and the distance given appears to be erroneous.
