During turf cutting operations c. 40 years ago a cist 3ft by 11/2ft was found 21/2ft under the bog and on the subsoil. The sides were constructed of dry-stone walling and the cist was covered by a slab. A quantity of red ash was found in the interior. A flint arrowhead and some flakes were found in the vicinity of the cist. The site is located in an undulating area of blanket bog and rock outcrop.
