The National Monuments Service's description
On lower W slopes of Brandon mountain range. A group of 7 conjoined structures now incorporated into modern field walls. These consist of 2 enclosures which are probably late features, 3 small structures (KE034-007002-; KE034-007003-; KE034-007004-) which may have been either huts or animal pens and which clearly pre-date the field walls, and 2 circular conjoined huts with a communicating passage (KE034-007----; KE034-007001-).
The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 1129. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
