The National Monuments Service's description

In rough hill pasture, on a NW-facing slope, in the valley of the Sheen River. The remains of a curvilinear stone wall (T 0.5m; H 0.4m) protrude above the surface of the bog (D 0.4m) and extend to the N for c. 25m. Stones gradually run on into deeper bog at both ends of the wall. Similar short stretches of wall were noted to the W and E of this wall. There is an enclosure (KE102-080002-) c. 60m to the SSE and another relict field boundary (KE102-080003-) c. 50m to the SE.

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.
