The National Monuments Service's description
In wet pasture, on the flood plains of the Camoge River that forms townland boundary with Ballycahill. A possible barrow (LI040-199001-) lies 25m to the NW. Identified by the Bruff aerial photographic survey in 1986 (Bruff 64; AP 5/2101) as a small circular cropmark of a possible barrow. No surface remains visible on Digital Globe orthoimage taken 2011-13 or Google Earth orthoimages.
See attached Bruff survey image showing cropmark labelled Bruff 64 and Google Earth orthoimages.
