The National Monuments Service's description
Towards the centre of a possible cashel (KE075-001----). The remains of an oval hut (c. 11m E-W; c. 6m N-S) defined by a collapsing drystone wall (T 3.2m; int. c. H 1m; ext. H 1.45m). Oak and holly trees grow in the inaccessible interior. A N-S wall radiates from the N arc, externally. There is another hut site (KE075-001002-) at the N end of this wall.
