On a knoll of the SE shoulder of Kilronan Mountain. Subcircular mound of stones (diam. 16m N-S; 14m E-W; H 0.5-0.8m) protruding from peat with a conical cairn (diam. c. 4m; H c. 3.8m) at the centre. See the attached general view from the N. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 24 August 2010
A subcircular stone mound with a central conical cairn, likely a Bronze Age fulacht fiadh or ritual/ funerary site; its function remains uncertain due to limited excavation. Locally significant as a prehistoric earthwork, but wider context unclear.
