Situated on the coast at the mouth of the river Delvin. This passage tomb is part of Bremore cemetery (Rynne 1960, 80, Mound IV). A pear-shaped mound (dims. 15m N-S; 8.5m E-W; H 1m). The site is truncated at the W side by a field boundary and has been damaged by ploughing. There is a core of water-rolled beach material exposed on the W side. Listed as possible passage tomb (Herity 1974, 209). Geophysical survey (Licence no. 06R0050) of the mound did not return specific structural detail (Gimson 2006, 10). The area was also subject to a constraint study carried out by Margaret Gowen & Company Ltd. in advance of a proposed port. In addition fieldwalking and lithic analysis was undertaken for an MA study (Collins, 2007).
