This site, not marked on the OS maps, is known locally as a ceallúnach and is located in a sloping field over-looking the Portmagee Channel. It consists of a stony area of approximately rectangular plan, measuring 10.8m N-S x 8.7m E-W, and is raised an average of .4m above surrounding ground level. A row of five large blocks occurs close to its W edge. The surface of the interior is uneven and features about eighty small boulders and upright slabs, some of which are quartz.
