Not marked on OS 1836 or 1876 eds. Situated adjacent to the Black River within a dense modern plantation of coniferous trees. Described by Richardson (1941, 35) as a small circular dry stone-built structure (int. diam. c. 1.8m; H c. 1.2m) of beehive-type construction, roofed internally by two slabs which had collapsed. It had a low entrance (H c. 0.9m; Wth c. 0.4m) the lintel of which had been raised at one time. The structure had no chimney. Not visited.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cavan' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1995). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
