The National Monuments Service's description
Within the interior of a cashel (GA103-148----). McCaffrey (1952, 200) recorded a 'circular mound of 33' [c. 10m] in diameter' located about '21' [c. 6.4m] from the west side'. He concluded it was 'probably a ruined hut site'. On inspection in November 1982 this feature was not noted.
