On low-lying rough pastureland, immediately to the E of a by-road and close to the base of a well-defined drumlin ridge. This small unenclosed burial ground (6m N-S; 5m E-W) is roughly subrectangular in plan. Two graves (L 3m; Wth 0.6m), lying side by side, are visible. Both are aligned E-W and are edged with small stones; a small grave-marker marks their W ends. According to local information, this may be a famine era burial ground and it may also have been used as a children's burial ground. A small ill-defined raised area to the N of the graves marks the children’s graves. This monument was brought to the attention of the Archaeological Survey of Ireland by Mr Michael Gibbons.
