The National Monuments Service's description
On a narrow level rock-strewn terrace on a moderately steep E-facing slope. Indicated and named ‘Turrenneefa’ on the 1915 ed. of the OS 6-inch map, a name that might be translated as ‘the little tower of the saint’. On inspection in 1997 there were no visible remains.
