The National Monuments Service's description
In the NE part of Doogary Lough. This low-cairn crannog (21.15m N–S; 16.45m E–W) rises 1.4m above the soft lake-bed. It is submerged and seems to consist of stones scattered on and around a few horizontal timbers. A large number of fossil timbers surround it.
