Upstanding monument labelled Site 5 and described by Ó Ríordáin and Hunt (1942, 42) as consisting of the ‘remains of a ruined megalith here, but it is not clear what type of tomb is represented, it appears to have been a " gallery grave," the present length of which is 16’ [4.8m] approximately’. Recorded by Grogan (1989, Vol. 2, 24) as a 'possible wedge-tomb'. The monument is not visible on the OSi orthophotograph taken between 2005-12 or Google Earth orthoimages.
