The National Monuments Service's description
Lisnakilla/Lios na Cille: A large subrectangular enclosure situated less than 1km N of Anascaul, on a NE facing slope about 200m W of the Owenascaul river. The foundations of several rectangular house sites lie within the enclosure but there is no visible trace of the souterrain (KE044-065007-) which was discovered many years ago in the SW sector (local information).
Bullaun stones: (2) (KE044-065006-) Lying beside the N side of the middle dividing wall, near its E end, this irregularly-shaped stone measures a maximum of .84 x .7m x .26m thick. It is unworked except for the oval depression, .38 x .56m in diameter and .21m deep, which occupies the centre of its upper surface.
The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 811. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
