The National Monuments Service's description
Identified in 2004 during archaeological testing in advance of roadworks (McQuade 2007, 251). Subsequent excavation in 2005 revealed several small, truncated and highly disturbed features containing charcoal and burnt stone. The excavator believed that the deposits were consistent with a fulacht fia (Tinnynarr 002) that had been severely damaged by agricultural activity (McCabe 2008, 253). A burnt mound (LF015-084----) lies c. 130m to the SE.
