The National Monuments Service's description
Univallate rath KE036-044---- with souterrain KE036-044001- is situated on an E facing slope on the W side of the valley of the Finglas river.
A stone-lined depression, a little N of centre, marks the location of a souterrain which appears to continue in a NE direction but which is not now accessible. A probable air-vent opens onto the outer face of the bank at NE, c. 0.6m above the present ground surface.
The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 357. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
