The National Monuments Service's description
Centrally located in Lough Nascardigan. Shown as an oblong island (c. 20m N-S, c. 10m E-W) on the 1837 and 1913 OS 6-inch maps. The lake has been drained and the area is now occupied by very wet, marshy ground. At the location of the island there is a slightly raised subrectangular area (c. 40m N-S; c. 25m E-W) covered by bog and densely overgrown with scrub.
