The National Monuments Service's description
In the S half of a rath (MA015-054----). The poorly preserved outline of a rectangular structure (c. 14-15m N–S; c. 6.5m E–W) is defined by a low, sod-covered stony bank/wall footings (Wth 1.2-1.5m; H 0.25-0.35m). A low stony bank partitions the structure into two ‘rooms’ of roughly equal size; the interior of the E room is at a slightly lower level than that of the W room.
