Situated on a gentle NW-facing slope on a northern spur of Lugnagun. An oval cairn (dims. c. 12m x 10m; max. H 1.8m) defined on the W side by a kerb which forms a flattened facade. Four kerbstones are visible. The centre of the mound has been dug out, exposing the rectangular gallery (dims. c. 6m x 1.8m), represented by two sidestones, three outer wall stones and one buttress stone. There is evidence for internal walling within the cairn on the S side. (Ó Nualláin 1989, 140)
