The National Monuments Service's description
In rough peaty pasture, on a SE-facing slope, on the W side of the valley of the Owbaun River. A layer (L 4m NW-SE; H 0.4m) of burnt material is exposed under a drystone field wall, close to the W bank of a stream. The layer extends into an overgrown area to the SW of the wall but its full extent cannot be determined. There is a possible cashel (KE084-005----) c. 140m to the NE.
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.
