Located on rocky ground at the lower end of a ridge which runs to SW from Mullaghnarakill mountain, this site is comprised of a row of three stones and an enclosure. The row, of which one stone is now prostrate, measures 4.3m long and is orientated NE-SW. The stone at the NE end of the line stands 1.95m high, and measures .9m x .25m at base; it inclines slightly to SE. The second stone is .63m further to SW, and stands 1.8m high and measures .68m x .26m at base. The prostrate stone lies 1.42m further to SW, and measures 3.15m long. Rectangular in outline, it averages .8m wide and has a maximum thickness of .6m (Ó Nualláin 1988, 238).
