The National Monuments Service's description
In rough hill pasture, on an E-W terrace on the steep N-facing hillslopes overlooking Glen Lough. The remains of a circular hut site (8m E-W; 7.8m N-S) defined by an eroded earthen bank (Wth 1.1m; H 0.4m). The hut site is cut (D 0.35m) into the upslope at the S. There is a possible souterrain (CO103-028006-) in the SE quadrant and another hut site (CO103-028004-) adjoins this hut site at the E.
The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009).
