The National Monuments Service's description
Sub-circular enclosure KE035-056----, with 2 internal hut-sites, situated on a gentle W facing slope overlooking the Owenmore valley.
A raised area between KE035-056001- and the enclosing bank to S is defined on its W side by a low grass-grown stony bank and may be the very collapsed remains of another hut (KE035-056003-).
The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 498. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
