One of nine Fionnán enclosures in a Coillte forest property at Gowlanes East, Co. Kerry. Dispersed over an area approximately 200m in length. They are on average 6m in diameter and are all similar in morphology i.e. a circular platform defined by a ring of boulders or stones or a bank of peat, with a shallow external fosse.
