Situated in bushes on a N-S spit of gravel at the W end of Gardice Lough, and c. 50m S of where the Ballinamore-Ballyconnel canal enters the lake. It is indicated as a small feature on the 1907 edition of the OS 6-inch map. A circular grass-covered area (int. diam. 8.5m) is defined by a spread of stones (Wth c. 1.5m) but it does not have an entrance and it might not be artificial. Moore (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2003).
