The National Monuments Service's description
In rough hill grazing, on a slight break in slope of a peaty WSW-facing hill. A relict, linear, stone field boundary (T c. 0.6m; H c. 0.3m), which protrudes above the peaty surface, commences c. 17m to the SE of a hut site (CO048-184----) and extends (L 24m) in a general NW-SE direction before disappearing into the bog at the SE. Towards its NW end the relict wall turns to the NE for a distance of 2m. Some of the stones are set at right angles to the line of the wall and the wall varies from one to two stones in width.
The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009).
