The National Monuments Service's description

In rough grazing, with occasional surface boulders, on a NW-facing hillslope with views across a valley to Mullaghmesha. A circular area (diam. 11m) is defined by the remains of a collapsed drystone wall (T 0.8m; H 0.5m) consisting of large stones, some of which are partially sod-covered. A boulder (H 1.1m) is incorporated into the wall at NW. The interior slopes down to the NW. A hut site (CO106-067002-) is c. 35m to the SW.

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