Located in Bocks Lough, a subrectangular lake (max. dims 560m NNW-SSE; c. 340-490m ENE-WSW), now much reduced in size. It is represented as an island only on the 1907 edition of the OS 6-inch map and is now incorporated into the marshy NE shore of the lake. The crannog is a circular overgrown cairn (diam. 18m; H 0.8m) but no structural features are evident. Revised by: Michael Moore Date of revision: 30 January 2018
