The National Monuments Service's description
In rough heather-clad hill pasture, on a S-facing slope overlooking the valley of the Clydagh River. A collapsed curvilinear stone wall (T 0.5m; H 0.4m) protrudes intermittently above the surface of a heather-covered bog and extends (L c. 68m) to the W from an enclosure (KE076-009----). Rubble is scattered downslope from the wall. There is a hut site (KE076-009007-) immediately to the N. Two hut sites (KE076-009003-, KE076-009004-) are 15m and 24m to the E, respectively. Two other huts (KE076-009005-, KE076-009006-) are in the immediate vicinity to the NE.
