The National Monuments Service's description
On the SE side of the heather-covered slopes of Diamond Hill in the Connemara National Park, this possible hut site (int. dims. 1.8m E-W; 1.4m E-W) is located on a small sheltered platform just above and N of the head of a stream that flows E down to the Polladirk River valley. It is subcircular in plan and is defined by a collapsed rubble wall (int. H 0.3-0.75m). This monument was brought to our attention by Helen Riekstiņš
