The National Monuments Service's description
In rough hill pasture, on a N-facing slope with outcropping rock, overlooking a river valley. A circular area (diam. 52m) defined by the ruins of a drystone wall (T 0.6m; H 0.5m) which protrudes above the surface of the bog. Several boulders and outcropping rock are incorporated into the wall. Rubble is scattered downslope from the wall. There is a hut site (KE103-005003-) in the centre.
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.
