The National Monuments Service's description
In a rough pasture shelf between outcropping rock to the E and a small river to the W, in a sheltered hollow to the NE of Coosheenatowick. The remains of a poorly preserved circular hut site (diam. 1.8m) defined a collapsed drystone wall (T 0.45m; H 0.15m). The interior is covered with jumbled stones and the entire hut site is partially obscured by gorse and heather. There is an enclosure (CO146-008----) c. 30m to the E.
The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009).
