The National Monuments Service's description
In an overgrown marshy terrace, on a S-facing slope. According to local information, there is a mound of heat-shattered stones and charcoal-enriched soil here. It was inaccessible due to the depth and instability of the marsh.
The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009).
