The National Monuments Service's description

In the N half of the interior of a rath (SL031-019001-). This consists of a square flat area (6m N-S; 6m E-W) defined by a scarp revetted with stones. Immediately to S is a possible hut site (SL031-019003-). Both appear to pre-date the cultivation ridges which cross the rath interior.
