The National Monuments Service's description
In a recently harvested coniferous forest. The remains of a collapsed stone wall (L 11m; T 1m; H 0.4m) protrudes from shallow bog and extends N from the most northern (KE081-020----) of two adjoining hut sites. A further stretch of the wall (L 17m) extends S from the southern hut site (KE081-020001-). The lower course of the wall consists mainly of large boulder-type stones with rubble from the collapsed upper courses scattered along both sides. (O'Sullivan and Sheehan 1996, 415-16, no. 1421)
