On a slight N-S ridge on the N-facing slope of Rathcroghan. Circular, flat-topped and grass-covered earth and stone mound (diam. of base 13.3m N-S; diam. of top 3m N-S; H 2.2-2.5m) with slip around its base. Rath (RO022-056023-) is 3.5m to the S. Geophysical testing failed to produce evidence of any internal structure, but it is suggested that the flat top might be a medieval adaption (Waddell et al. 2009, 49-55). (Knox 1914a, 16-7, 21; Herity 1983, fig. 37, Toberrory 3; 1984, 129; Waddell 1983, 37; 1988, 10, No. 35)
This is a National Monument in state ownership: No. 294.
