In rough grazing on bog, on a rise overlooking Lough Naparka to the SW. The remains of a rectangular hut site (4.5m NW-SE; 2.4m NE-SW) defined by the remains of a stone wall (T 0.8m; H 0.3m), protrude above the surface of bog. Rubble is scattered in the interior. (O'Sullivan and Sheehan 1996, 405, no. 1301)
