The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on townland boundary in a large open area of rough mountain grazing used for grazing sheep. Rectangular hut site (int. dims. 3.6m E-W x 2m N-S; wall H 1.1m; wall T 0.45m) aligned E-W within a sheltered hollow in an otherwise N facing slope with views over Tralee Bay. The N-S townland boundary wall has been built over its W wall suggesting that the hut site is older than the townland boundary wall. A cluster of other hut sites are located c.30m to the W.
