The National Monuments Service's description

In pasture on the Burren plateau, with wide views in all directions. Within a multi-period field system (CL005-108001-). A rectangular house (13.45m NW–SE; 4m NE–SW) of indeterminate date is defined by double-faced drystone walls (Wth 0.5–0.7m; max H 0.5m). There is a doorway (Wth 0.75m) in the middle of the SW wall, and probably another in the NE wall which is not as well defined. The house has three rooms (NW room L 2.2m; middle room L 4.2m; SE room L 3.35m; all av. Wth 2.8m).
Nearby associated features and monuments include a paddock/corral c. 5.5m to the NE, a house of indeterminate date (CL009-004003-) c. 9m to the ENE, a second house of indeterminate date (CL009-004002-) c. 16m to the NNW and a possible 16th/17th-century house (CL009-004----) c. 28m to the NW.
