The stone foundations survive to a maximum height of .3m above external ground level and average 1.35m thick. Ill-defined gaps at NE and SW indicate possible entrances.
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. 936. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
