The National Monuments Service's description
This small leacht reputed to be the grave of Dermod O'Duin (OSNB Caher, 30), is located close to the N angle of the internal dividing wall of the enclosure (KE080-046001-). Composed of stone, it is .3m high and 2.4m square. A number of upright slabs retain its E, S and W sides, and an ogham stone stands on it.
The above description is derived from O'Sullivan, A. and Sheehan, J. (compilers) 'The Iveragh peninsula: an archaeological survey of South Kerry'. Cork University press. (1996), no. 959. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
