A wonderful site. Two boulder burials, about 65m apart, with magnificent views to Corran and Carrigfadda. The pyramidal shape of the eastern boulder - 2.5m*1.4m*1.35m, according to the Archaeological Inventory - mirrors the shape of the latter.

Permission to visit may be obtained from the farm on the other side of the road.
