The National Monuments Service's description
In rough pasture, with outcropping rock on the W slope of Knockbrack. A semicircular area (4m N-S) defined by a drystone wall (T 0.9m; H 0.8m) of random rubble W-E and by a linear random rubble field boundary (H 1.2m; L 10m E-W) at S. The enclosure is covered with overgrowth and loose stones occur in the interior and around the perimeter.
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.
