The National Monuments Service's description
Situated in the E centre of a cashel (CL009-059081-), this collapsed souterrain (3m ENE-WSW; 1.2m NNE-SSW) is defined by a wall at N, a collapsed wall at S, and several stone roof lintels at E. It may extend another c. 2m to the SSW. Around the souterrain is a rectangular stone arrangement (7m E-W; 5m N-S), defined at N and E by a kerb of upright stone slabs.
