The National Monuments Service's description
Classified as a fulacht fia in the RMP (1996) on the basis of Tom Coffey's annotated 6-inch map (1994) which is marked at this location. This is a fairly level, low-lying area that has been partly reclaimed as pasture. Some hummocks are visible in the pasture, but the precise location is not certain and burnt mound material could be in the vicinity in the reclaimed land or in the scrubland to the S.
