The National Monuments Service's description
Situated immediately outside the inner wall at Cahercommaun (CL010-064003-) at SE. Described and drawn by Hencken (1938, 11-12) as a small ‘cloghán’ (diam. c. 1.5m) with a projecting wall (L c. 2m) joining it to the cashel wall. The walls remained to 1.5m but the corbelled roof had fallen in. (Hencken 1938, 1-81)
