The National Monuments Service's description
In rough peaty hill pasture, on an E-W terrace on a S-facing slope. The remains of a circular hut site (diam. 4.7m) defined by the jumbled lower courses of a drystone wall (T 0.8m; H 0.45m) which protrudes above the shallow bog cover. The level interior is partially covered with rushes. Another hut site (CO104-033002-) is 4m to the N. The Beara Way walking route is c. 50m to the S of this hut site.
The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009).
