The National Monuments Service's description
Located in a rath (MA080-031----). A large horizontal slab protrudes slightly from the sod roughly in the centre of the rath interior. This is a roof lintel, possibly slightly displaced, covering a blocked up souterrain. A slight surface subsidence suggests that the souterrain passage or chamber extends to S.
