The National Monuments Service's description
In coniferous wood, in a bog on the lower N-facing slopes of Beenduff. The remains of a square hut site (2m N-S; 2m E-W) defined by a partially obscured stone wall (T 0.6m; H 0.4m) at N and E and by the external face of the walls of an enclosure (KE080-070006-) at S and W. The stone wall at N and E protrudes above the surface of the bog. The level interior is obscured by rubble.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Kerry. Volume I: South-West Kerry' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
