The National Monuments Service's description

In formerly boggy terrain, now reclaimed pasture. A spread of burnt stone and charcoal (diam. c. 7m) discovered during ploughing. Though under pasture when visited in 1989, it was clearly visible as a slightly raised, drier area. There is another fulacht fia (KK022-050----) c. 100m to the SE and a ringfort (KK022-024----) c. 100m to the E.
