The National Monuments Service's description
On low-lying ground, immediately N of a small meandering stream in an area liable to floods. The stream runs W in a small E-W valley. One of a group of fulachta fia adjacent to the stream (see KK008-184----, KK008-185----, KK008-186----). A slight, almost circular, grass-covered mound (diam. 10m; max. H 0.4m) of burnt stone and charcoal. A slight depression (2m NE-SW; 1.5m E-W) at SW probably indicates the position of a trough or pit.
