Field Visit (21 May 2015)
This stony mound, which is situated 120m offshore from Ardmore and has previously been classified as a possible fish-trap or ballast mound, appears to be natural. Its content matches that of the adjacent shoreline: there is another mound 175m to the south which also appears to be natural.
