The National Monuments Service's description
In rough hill pasture, on a terrace on a W-facing slope. The remains of a circular hut site (diam. 7m) defined by a jumbled stone wall (T 0.6m; H 0.3m) which protrudes above the surface of the shallow bog. Rubble is scattered in the level fern-covered interior and externally along the perimeter. The hut site is sheltered by a large rock to the SE.
The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009).
