Possible fulacht fia identified and described by John Loesberg as; 'On northern slopes of Beenreagh mountain. Surrounded by lots of dry stone walls. Also ancient, intermittent stone walls in the area. Inverted U shaped mound, high in the centre and tapering off on either side. Overall dimensions c. 10 x 10m. Max height c. 1.5m. Although no obvious stream is nearby, to the east the soil is full of water and in some places older, now dry watercourses can be seen'.
