The National Monuments Service's description
Within the SW quadrant of a cashel (KE075-005----). The remains of a possible subrectangular hut site (10m E-W; 8.5m N-S) defined by a bank (Wth 3.6m; int. H 0.75m; ext. H 0.4m) of earth and stone on the S and E sides and by the cashel wall on the W side. This possible hut site is open to the N. There is a souterrain (KE075-005002-) within the NE sector, abutting the internal wall of the hut. Trees and bushes grow on top of the bank.
