The National Monuments Service's description

In rough hill pasture, on a NE-SW terrace on the NW-facing slopes of Gouladane overlooking Bantry Bay. The remains of a rectangular hut site (3.9m E-W; 3.4m N-S) defined by the lower horizontally set courses of a partially collapsed drystone wall (T 0.75m; H 0.65m). The entrance (Wth 0.4m) is at the E. Large upright slabs line the wall internally at the S corner and along the S side. The entire hut site is obscured by ferns.

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