The National Monuments Service's description
This is Cucullin's tomb a plan and sketch of which was made by Gabriel Beranger in 1779 (see Borlase ). It was 27 feet in diameter. Wood-Martin notes that it was destroyed in 1858. Although Ó Nualláin did not consider the evidence sufficient to warrant including it in his list of passage tombs (1989, 3), the possibility remains that it could belong within the tradition.
