Marked 'Gallaun' on the OS maps, this site is situated in boggy pasture, on the SE slopes of Coomduff, and overlooks the valley of the Cummeragh river. It consists of three stones, orientated NE-SW, the easternmost lying prostrate and measuring 2.45m x 1.05m x .25m. The uprights stand .62m apart and the tallest, at NE, measures 2.35m high and 1.05m x .3m at base; some packing stones are exposed at its base. The second upright marks the SW end of the row and inclines slightly towards SE. It stands .9m high and measures .35m x .25m at base.
The above description is derived from A. O'Sullivan and J. Sheehan (compilers), 'The Iveragh peninsula: an archaeological survey of South Kerry'. Cork University Press (1996), no. 102. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
