Bonner (1972, 17) recorded the destruction of 'a sort of dolmen' around 50 years earlier at Ballagh. It was said to consist of a large coffin-shaped stone resting on three uprights. The location of the site may be that indicated in the heading (C. O'Rahilly, pers. comm.). A pillar-like stone, 2.2m long, 0.4m broad and 0.2m thick, lies prone on a boggy ridge beside a low upright stone that may be part of the butt of the prostrate stone. This may have been a standing stone.
