The National Monuments Service's description
At the NE-facing crest of a broad NW-SE ridge. What was probably a Bowl Food Vessel (diam. of top c. 12.7cm; H c. 12.7cm) with a convex waist was found in a stone-lined cist together with cremated bone in 1926. The material was not recovered, and the precise location is not known but it was within 50m of Teampal Maoil church (RO020-058001-) (NMI file, 1926).
