What is recorded here
On a flat-topped knoll with fine views overlooking Glengarriff Harbour. This possible structure is incorporated in a townland boundary. It comprises a large boulder (1.7m x 1.5m; T 0.5m) straddling the boundary wall and a single supporting upright stone on its S side. The structure rests at an angle against the wall which suggests that it predates the wall.

An unclassified megalithic tomb (CO105-057----) is located 2m to the S. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009).
