At Carrowmore passage tomb cemetery. This boulder circle with central structure was destroyed in the 19th century. Indicated on the 1837 OS 6-inch maps as a circle of dots, it was already partly destroyed when visited by Petrie who described it as follows: ‘The remains of this circle, which was destroyed with its cromleac about three years since, consist of 24 large stones.' (Stokes 1868, 250; No. 50) There is now no trace of the monument at ground level.
