The National Monuments Service's description
In rough pasture, on the N-facing slope of a ridge flanked to the N and S by bog. An irregular area (c. 60m E-W; c. 40m N-S) defined by a low wall (H c. 1m) built of large stones, random rubble and sections of earth and stone. There are numerous gaps especially on the W and N sides. A field system (KE093-037----) of 18th or 19th century date is immediately to the S.
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.
