On a gentle NE-facing slope, c. 55m to the NE of a standing stone (LF011-010----). A stone circle (LF011-007----) is c. 840m to the WNW. A concave, circular area (base diam. 12m; max. diam. 30.9m) enclosed by a wide and much-denuded, low bank of earth and stone (base Wth 13.4m; top Wth 7m; H 0.2m) with a wide, shallow, external fosse (base Wth 6m; top Wth 19.3m; D 0.25m). The surface of the concave area is between 0.25m (NNE) and 1.3m (SSE) below the external ground level and is similar morphologically to the possible pond-barrow (LF010-073----) at Ballybrien.Compiled by: Patrick F.
