What makes this one quietly notable is how thoroughly it had slipped from the record: it does not appear on the Ordnance Survey six-inch maps of either 1837 or 1913, meaning it went uncharted through nearly two centuries of systematic mapping.

When inspected in 2000, the crannog was found to consist of a roughly oval cairn of stones, approximately 15 metres north to south and 12 metres east to west, capped with grass-covered peat and rising only about 0.45 metres above the lake surface. Despite that modest profile, the structure shows three distinct levels. At the centre sits a tight concentration of subangular limestone blocks, each roughly 0.3 to 0.4 metres across, most of them firmly set into the ground; this forms a kind of raised nucleus measuring around 3.6 metres in each direction. Around it spreads a plateau of soft peat, possibly concealing a stone floor beneath, which extends westward to the shoreline. The outer edge of the crannog sits a little lower still, forming a narrow encircling berm, between 0.4 and 0.8 metres wide, edged with reeds and surrounded by a belt of dense wetland vegetation and very soft peat, four to seven metres across, that effectively separates the structure from dry land. The crannog sits in the western part of the western shore of the lough, close to the marshy margins, and the combination of soft peat, standing water, and dense vegetation means it remains largely inaccessible and overgrown at its centre.
