The National Monuments Service's description

'This is a small oval denuded hut, measuring 5m north-south by 4m east-west internally. The walls are of drystone construction, surviving to a maximum of two courses in height, averaging 0.5m thick and 0.35m in height. An entrance occurs on the southwest side of the site, 0.9m wide and marked on its northern side by a large limestone slab. No internal features were noted. The ground in the immediate vicinty is very waterlogged.'

The above description was published in F. Coyne, 'Islands in the clouds: an upland archaeological study on Mount Brandon and the Paps, Co. Kerry.' (Kerry Co. Council in association with Aegis Archaeology, 2006).
