The National Monuments Service's description
Internal diam. 19m.
A roughly circular univallate rath situated on the N side of the Knocknanacree ridge, overlooking the narrow valley that extends W from Anascaul. A series of large, roughly circular depressions in the interior are enclosed by low stony banks and may be the remains of hut-sites (KE044-108001-). They measure up to 6m in diameter and 1.25m in depth.
The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 281. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
