The National Monuments Service's description

Listed as Fulacht fia (possible) in the SMR (1992) but unlocated and not listed in the RMP (1996). The SMR listing is based on a Coffey reference (1985, 29) that in the valley beneath Cahercommaun (CL010-064003-) about 150m from the cliff base is “a small fulacht fiadh” close to a spring. A second was destroyed by road building nearby.” This is one of a number of fulachta fia mentioned but which were not located during an inspection of the area in 1999.
