The National Monuments Service's description
Located at the W end of a field system (GA009D026----), this circular house site (diam. 10m) appears to be one of five (see also GA009D026001-, GA009D026002-, GA009D026004- and GA009D026005-) recorded by Westropp (1911, Part 2, 62 (d)) in this area. Only the foundations stones (H 0.1-0.2m) survive.
