The National Monuments Service's description
In rough hill pasture, in a sheltered hollow, on the SW-facing slope of Mangerton Mountain. A stretch of relict field wall (L c. 60m; T c. 0.65m; H c. 0.4m), on an E-W axis, extends across the hollow. The wall is in a ruinous state. A hut site (KE085-036001-) and a possible hut site (KE085-036002-) lie adjacent to the S side of this field wall.
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.
