The National Monuments Service's description
In hill grazing, on an E-W ridge overlooking the valley of the Inny River. An oval area (7.6m E-W; 5m N-S) defined by the roughly built lower courses of a stone wall (T 0.7m; H 0.7m). Rubble from the collapsed upper courses of the wall is strewn in the interior and along the perimeter externally. A hut site (KE081-051----) adjoins the enclosure at NE and a relict field boundary (KE081-050----) is in the immediate vicinity to the N.
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.
