The National Monuments Service's description
In the interior of a cashel (SL040-15801-). Scant remains of two possible rectangular stone-built huts were noted during a previous site inspection in 1985, immediately to S and SW of the souterrain (SL040-158002-) (SMR (1989) file). The S hut measured 3m E-W x 2.5m N-S. No remains of these structures were evident during a subsequent site inspection in 2001.
