The National Monuments Service's description

In rough hill pasture, on a small terrace with occasional outcropping rock at the foot of a steep S-facing slope. The remains of a circular hut site (diam. 5m) defined by intermittent traces of a bank (Wth 0.6m; H 0.1m). The level interior is raised (H 0.8m) along the SE-SW arc and is cut (D 0.4m) into the upslope at N. The raised S portion of the hut site is revetted by a collapsing stone wall.

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