Located towards the bottom of the SE-facing slope of a drumlin. Excavated in 1964 by A. B. Ó Ríordáin of the National Museum of Ireland, it consisted of a stone-lined pit (diam. of top 2.3m; diam. of base 1.15m; D 1.5m) with a stone floor and a flue (Wth 0..28m; H 0.3m; L 2m plus) at floor level on the E side. The monument is now back-filled. (NMI file)
