The National Monuments Service's description
Located in the NE quadrant of the interior of a cashel (CL008-045014-), this possible house site survives as a D-shaped area (6m N-S) with a straight N side (L 10m). The latter side is part of a later field wall that crosses the cashel from W towards ENE. It is unclear whether the strucutre was originally circular in plan and was subsequently truncated by the construction of this wall. From ENE-W it is defined by a collapsed and grassed-over wall. A house site (CL008-045020-) lies c. 7m to the WSW and another possible house site lies c. 22m to the WNW.
