The National Monuments Service's description
In rough hill grazing, on a mantle of blanket bog, on an E-facing slope. The remains of a circular hut site (diam. 3.4m) defined by a grassed-over earthen bank (Wth c. 0.7m: H 0.35m) through which the tops of stones protrude intermittently. A scarp skirts the bank externally SE-SW. Two fulachtaí fia (CO115-137007-, CO115-137003-) lie 8m to the N and 10m to the SW, respectively. A wall from a network of field boundaries (CO115-137008-) lies immediately to the S.
The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009).
