On a small hill overlooking Cuan na Beirtrí Buí. Known locally as Tobar Muire, it consists of a natural round hollow (D 0.13m) in a sloping rock outcrop. A flat round stone is used as a lid and modern offerings are visible around it. There is a small cairn (H 0.8m), surmounted by a wooden cross, on a rock 3m to W, and another cairn (H 0.8m) 12m to E. (Robinson 1985, 45)
