The National Monuments Service's description
In rough hill pasture, in a sheltered hollow just N of the summit of Knockaughna. The remains of a D-shaped hut site (3.5m N-S) defined by the collapsed lower courses of a curving drystone wall (T 0.5m; H 0.3m) with straight S side (L 3.2m). The drystone wall is partially obscured by gorse and heather. Rubble is scattered in the interior. Another hut site (CO139-072001-) adjoins this hut at the E.
The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009).
