In rough pasture, at foot of the NW-facing slope of Baurearagh Mountain. The remains of a rectangular house (4m NE-SW; 3.1m NW-SE) built on a platform cut (D 0.6m) into the upslope. The house consists of a well-built, drystone wall (T c. 0.65m; H 1m) which is partly collapsed; both the SW and NE walls have collapsed inwards, covering part of the interior. There is a door ope (Wth 0.7m) in the centre of the NW 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.
