This monument came to light during the course of fieldwork on the AranLIFE Farming Project (2014-2018) (see www.aranlife.ie). It is located on a terrace on the W side of the island in an area of rough grazing and exposed limestone pavement. A field wall clips it at NW. The well-defined mound (c. 13m NE-SW; 9.5m E-W; H 1.3-1.5) is subcircular in plan with a central hollow and it is made up of earth and stone. A slight depression or opening is visible at S. Faint traces of it are visible on the external face of the wall that clips it. Remains of crushed winkle shells are visible in section on the S side.
