This mound came to light during the course of fieldwork on the AranLIFE Farming Project (2014-2018) (see www.aranlife.ie). It is located on the SW side of the island, immediately to the SE of a boreen, and is in an area of rough grassland with outcropping limestone pavement. The substantial high NE-SW running field/boreen wall cuts across it at NW. The grass-covered mound (13m NE-SW; 6m NW-SE; H 1.3m) is made up of earth and stone and is roughly kidney-shaped in plan with a central hollow. It is overgrown with briars at W but a number of set stones visible here may possibly be part of the inner wall-face of a circular house.
