The National Monuments Service's description
In the NW quadrant of a cashel (MA121-123001----). In a 1983 field report it was noted that a ‘vaguely defined rectilinear feature against the inside of the cashel wall on the NNW could represent the remains of a hut site but this is doubtful.’ On the N side the feature was defined by the cashel wall, on the E and W by a few stones jutting out from the wall, and on the S side by ‘some stones in the surface.’ (SMR file, 1983).
