Among the sand dunes on Conor's Island. Remains of a degraded, low, triangular-shaped cairn measuring 6.10m (NW side) by 6.50m (E side) by 6.90m (SW side). It survives to a height of c. 0.40m and the sides appear to be slightly concave. Morphological comparisons have been made with the 'treudd' Iron Age graves of Scandanavian (pers. comm. M. A. Timoney).
