The National Monuments Service's description
The 'Gallaun' marked on the OS maps fell about 40 years ago (Sheehy 1979, 42) and is no longer visible. Curran describes it as 8 feet (2.4m) high and 3 feet (.9m) thick.
The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 159. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
