The National Monuments Service's description

In rough pasture, in an E-W hollow. The remains of a rectangular hut site (5.2m E-W; 2.3m N-S) defined by the lower courses of a rubble stone wall (T 0.6m; H 0.8m) which is faced on both sides and obscured by moss and ferns. The entrance (Wth 0.5m) is in the centre of the S wall. The level interior is partially obscured by ferns and moss-covered rubble. Another hut site (CO104-023002-) is c. 25m to the E.

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