The National Monuments Service's description
In rough hill pasture, on a SW-facing rocky slope, overlooking the valley of the Dromoghty River. A collapsed curvilinear stone wall (T 0.7m; H 0.5m) protrudes above the surface of the bog, extends to the NE for c. 28m, runs mainly under the bog for c. 20m and then reappears for c. 15m. At the SW end a branch extends to the SE for 8m. Several upright stones were noted at right angles to the line of the wall.
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.
