The National Monuments Service's description
On level ground, in poorly drained rough pasture. At the time of inspection the area was being developed as a holiday-home complex and there were no visible remains of the fulacht fia. A drainage ditch lies c. 10m to the N. Three fulachtaí fia (KE066-036----, KE066-036001-, KE066-036002-) lie in close proximity to the NW.
