The National Monuments Service's description
Situated in the NE quadrant of a cashel (CL009-106002-), this possible souterrain is indicated by a concentration of collapsed lintel slabs (L 2m; Wth 0.8m; T 0.4m), oriented N-S, that lead towards the stony mound that occupies the N sector of the interior.
