The National Monuments Service's description
In rough pasture, on a N-facing slope overlooking the valley of the Drimminboy River and within a network of field boundaries (KE111-004001-). The remains of a circular hut site (diam. 2.3m) defined by a collapsed, grass-covered drystone wall (T c. 0.65m; H 0.4m). The N portion of the interior is built up (H 0.2m) and the S portion is cut (D 0.2m) into upslope to compensate for the hillslope. There is an enclosure (KE111-004004-) c. 70m to the NW.
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.
