The National Monuments Service's description
An L-shaped depression, .65m deep and 2.15m wide, occupies the NW quadrant; it extends from NNW to SSE for 5m, then turns at right angles towards NE for 4.8m. It may indicate the location of a dug-out souterrain (KE097-006001-).
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. 485. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
