The National Monuments Service's description
This potential feature was reported by Michael Connolly, County Archaeologist, Kerry County Council. It was identified by him during the course of an assessment of a 40 square mile area for the purpose of choosing a road route in 2000 to the north of Killarney. Reported to the Archaeological Survey of Ireland as an extant fulacht fia. There was no obvious surface trace of a fulacht fia at this location, however the search locus was limited due to large areas of windblown trees. For this reason, the results of the current survey are inconclusive.
