The National Monuments Service's description
The SMR for County Donegal (1987) suggests that there is a megalithic tomb at the position indicated in the heading, but this is not the case. There is a large, leaning granite stone here, possibly a standing stone, with a small heap of grass-grown stones, apparently the result of field clearance, at its base.
Colhoun 1949, 116; Killanin and Duignan 1962, 114; Killanin and Duignan 1967, 127 (prehistoric chamber tomb); SMR 1987, 38:18; RMP 1995, 38:18.
