Eroded and well buried, so difficult to assess nature and extent. 2 upright slabs at slight angles to each other facing seaward and may have been a third stone but is now collapsed; 1m to south 3 long slabs enclosing a rectangular box-like stone setting; enclosed on 3 sides and open on side facing seaward. May be an earlier site reused for later burials. Potential fulacht fiadh stone trough or a cist burial. Compiled by: Connie Kelleher Date of upload: 17 January 2019
