Discovered in 1967 and excavated by O'Kelly and Shee (1968, 40-3). Five chambers were described, all earth cut; the smallest is Chamber 3 (L 2.0m; Wth 1.50m) and the largest is Chamber 4 (L 6.50m; Wth 1.50m; H 0.75m). Chamber 3 contained 3 capstones with ogham inscriptions (CO107-058----, CO107-059----, CO107-060----); now in the National Museum.
