In June 1959 a short cist containing a cremation was discovered during digging in the garden of a dwelling house. The cist was wedge-shaped in plan, with a long axis aligned N-W/SE (Dims. L 0.44m, Wth. 0. 44m, H 0.25m). The cist was covered by a large capstone (Cahill & Sikora, 2011, Vol. 1, 343-345).
