The National Monuments Service's description

On uplands towards SW coast of Inis Mór. All that survives is an arc of walling (L 7m) projecting above a large irregular cairn of field clearance stones. Possibly the remains of a hut. (Robinson 1980)

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).
