The National Monuments Service's description
This togher was located towards the W edge of Cloonshannagh Bog, c. 100m from its W edge. It was orientated E-W and is situated 19m south of and parallel to a section of togher (RO024-024----). The site was visible at two sightings c. 20m apart. The W part (L 2.9m; Wth 2.2m; T 0.8m) is composed of longitudinally laid roundwood (diam. 0.06-0.08m) and has a small platform (dims. 1m x 1m) attached on the N side with roundwoods laid N-S. The E part (L 1.22m; Wth 1.64m; T 0.5m) consists of poorly preserved brushwood underlain by heavy brushwood longiditudinals (diam. 0.01-0.05m).
