This site, not marked on the OS maps, is located on the saddle ridge which extends N from Broaghnabinna mountain to Curragh More lake and separates the Black and Bridia valleys. The ridge bears a mantle of peat, c .45m deep in the vicinity of the monument. The row, 2.7m long, is comprised of three stones and is orientated ESE-WNW. The tallest stone, at E, stands 1.95m high and measures .66m x .55m at base where a number of packing stones are exposed. Standing .8m to W, the central and lowest stone is .72m high and measures .32m x .25m at base. The long axis of the third stone, .44m to W, is aligned N-S; it stands .9m high and is .35m x .26m at base (Ó Nuallain 1988, 238).
