The National Monuments Service's description
Locating in blanket bog, on the flat top of a ridge flanked by the Easkey River valley to W and the valley of the Fiddanduff stream to E. This record was not listed in the SMR (1989). It refers to a ‘post row’ first noted in the early 1990’s and listed in the RMP (1995) at IG 139670 326620 (equating to ITM 539534 826627): the source of this record is unknown and there is no field report from the 1990’s on file. The area was inspected in 2014 but no trace of the post row was found. It is likely that the monument was incorrectly located at the time of the original inspection. Two other post rows (SL017-084001-; SL017-084002-) were recorded in the same area.
