The National Monuments Service's description

In rough hill pasture, on a NE-facing slope at the E end of the Coomacheo River valley. A roughly circular area (int. 7.4m N-S; 6.6m E-W) is defined by the remains of a collapsed drystone wall (T 0.55m; H 0.45m) now in a jumbled state. The larger base stones are protruding from the bog and some stones are scattered in the interior, which slopes down to the NE.

The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009).
