Another burnt mound (Site 8) on the Belfast Transmission Pipeline, in Middle Division townland, was located close to a stream and consisted of the remains of a wood-lined trough and some small associated features. However, the site had been greatly disturbed by later activity. Some of this probably happened in the Early Christian period as several sherds of souterrain ware were recovered.
