Within the SW quadrant of the interior of a rath (GA106-123----) that is a National Monument. This souterrain is defined by a large pit (L 19.1m; base Wth 1.1m; max. Wth 4.3m; D 0.8m) aligned roughly N-S. Some boulders are visible in its sides and three capstones (traceable L 1.4m), placed transversely across the hollow, survive towards its S end. Two of the capstones (Wth 0.55m; T 0.23m) are in situ and the most southerly one at the S end is displaced.
