Situated in pasture on a shelf of a W-facing slope overlooking the N-S Dalligan River, with the stream c. 350m to the W. It was listed as the site of a ‘lios’ in the 1930s (NMI file). A curve in a field bank at W (C c. 30m) may respect the outline of an enclosure, which is otherwise not visible at ground level.

In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload/revision: 26th September, 2011.
