The National Monuments Service's description
Uphill of KE042-147----, at a distance of about 200m, is a stony platform defined along its S side by a steep drop of c. 3m; it measures c. 11m E-W. Two trackways leading E from the site have disturbed it considerably and classification is uncertain. However it was described as being similar to KE042-138---- and KE042-147---- (local information).
The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 255. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
