(NR 825 975) At the edge of the steep bank of Bruach na Cuirte overlooking the lodge is a cist measuring 4'4" x 2' x 2'6". Nothing was found in the cist which had been opened previously. One or two short pits were dug on the level ground above and short flagstones were found which may have been adjacent to cist covers. The side of the cist is exposed.
