What is recorded here
In low-lying marshy pastureland, c. 10m to the W of a stream. This partially demolished fulacht fia consists of two oval-shaped grassed-over mounds of burnt stone. A slight rise running from the W end of the N mound (7m E-W; 4m N-S; H 1m) to the S mound (7m E-W; 5m N-S; H 0.3m) suggests that the trough area
originally opened out to the E. (Cody 1989, 162, no. 22)
