Close to the seashore on E side of Sellerna Bay. The monument consists of a small narrow chamber (L c. 2.3m, Wth c. 0.8m) aligned E-W, and covered by a roofstone supported at W by a large slab. The N and S sides are each formed of three stones. The sides extend beyond the single orthostat which closes E end. The monument is incorporated in a fence. The remains are insufficient to allow classification. (de Valera and Ó Nualláin 1972, 5)
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. I - West Galway'. Compiled by Paul Gosling (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1993).
