Patrickstown Hill is the eastern-most of the Loughcrew hills. On it there are several cairns (X1, X2, X3, Y & Z) and several standing stones. The first four cairns are very ruined and cairn Z now looks like a motte, as it was reused and adapted at a later date.
It can be reached via Carnbane East (the central Loughcrew hill) or from a path to the east that leads from a small car park.

Patrickstown Hill can be reached in two ways. You can park at the main Loughcrew parking site, climb Carnbane East where cairn T is and then wander over to Patrickstown Hill, or you can park on the east side of the hill and follow the track that starts opposite the small car park there (N 603 782). To find this car park follow the N154 south from Oldcastle towards Kells. The car park is about 7km from Oldcastle on the left.
