Davies (ITA Survey 1942) recorded 'a circular cairn of small stones 40 ft. across and rising 5 ft. above the marsh; clearly artificial. Much overgrown.' If the site location co-ordinates given by Davies are correct, the site is situated on the E shore of 'Scotch Island' in Lough Oughter, a small island in the marshy bay of the much larger Trinity Island. 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.
