The National Monuments Service's description
Abutting the enclosing bank in the SW quadrant of a rath (SL033-118----). This possible house is evident as a shallow rectangular depression (5.4m E-W; 3.2m N-S; D 0.1-0.35m) defined on the S and W sides by the enclosing bank of the rath, and on the N and E sides by an artificial scarp. Some stone is visible in the N side. The entrance may have been on the E side.
