The National Monuments Service's description
Located on a low E-W ridge. The house (ME043-011----) is situated at the NW angle of a large grass-covered enclosure or bawn (dims c. 50m N-S; c. 30m E-W) defined on all sides except the N by earthen banks (at W: Wth 8m; H 0.8-1m) and external fosses or hollow ways (at S: Wth of top 5.5m; D 0.5m). The field system (ME043-012----) extended around the house E-S-W but all the remains were removed c. 2013 (Bing).
