The National Monuments Service's description

Within the SW quadrant of a rath (GA113-064----). This possible rectangular house site (11.9m E-W; 6.3m N-S) is defined by collapsed walling (Wth 0.8m; H 0.2m) along the W, E and N sides. The S wall foundations are very indistinct. It lies c. 1.5m to the S of a souterrain (GA113-064001-) and a 19th-century burial vault.
