The National Monuments Service's description
In rough pasture, on bog, on an E-facing hillslope. The jumbled remains of a circular hut site (diam. 2m) defined by a collapsed stone wall (T 0.6m; H 0.4m) which protrudes above the surface of the bog. The level interior is partially obscured by rubble. The entrance (Wth 0.45m) is at the NE. There is an enclosure (CO104-037004-) c. 5m to the W and another hut site (CO104-037002-) c. 10m to the N.
The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009).
