The National Monuments Service's description

In a hollow on an E-facing slope. Described in the 1940s as the ruins of a house (ext. dims c. 5m x. c. 4m) defined by the base of a drystone wall and attached to the townland boundary between Aghnahoo to the W and Corlea to the E (SMR file). No visible evidence of this monument was encountered in 1992 in a heather-covered landscape and its exact location is not known.
