The National Monuments Service's description
In pasture, at the foot of a S-facing slope, which borders an overgrown level marshy area. According to local information, a mound was levelled here in the 1980s. The fulacht fia is not visible at ground level. This is the fulacht fia recorded in the 1940s in Patrick Brosnan's land (Schools Manuscript, Co. Kerry).
