The National Monuments Service's description

On a steep N-facing slope overlooking the mouth of Ballynakill Harbour. A poorly preserved subrectangular structure (L 7.4m, Wth 1.3-1.6m), aligned WNW-ESE, and defined by set boulders (H 0.45m max.). The remains are insufficient to permit classification.

The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. I - West Galway'. Compiled by Paul Gosling (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1993).
