The National Monuments Service's description
In rough pasture on the S slopes of Beenduff. A hut defined by an oval-shaped setting of slabs with ruined, sod-covered external coursing. Possible entrance at E. D: 3.45m x 3.1m. Two possible huts nearby indicated by less well-defined circular settings of uprights. Old field walls occur in this area.
The above description is derived from A. O'Sullivan and J. Sheehan (compilers), 'The Iveragh peninsula: an archaeological survey of South Kerry'. Cork University Press (1996), no. 1337. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
