In level pasture. Removed; no visible surface trace. Condon (1916, 68, no. 26) recorded....'dolmen partially embedded in an accumulation of stones, earth, grass etc. The top of the capstone is level with this accumulation, and, therefore, it is impossible without implements to uncover the upright stones. The interior of the monument is filled up with rubbish. The capstone is 84 inches in length, 33 inches in average breadth, and is 8 inches in thickness'. According to de Valera and O Nualláin (1982, 44, no. 9) 'The original nature of the feature is uncertain'.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 3: Mid Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1997). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
