The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on flat bogland. This structure was first recorded and surveyed by the Irish Archaeological Wetland Unit (UCD) in 1994 but was subsequently destroyed during peat milling between 1994 and 1995. The site consisted of a subrectangular area (dims. 5.6m E-W x 4m N-S) defined by wooden uprights, including roundwood, brushwood and half-split posts with an internal setting of three stakes bisecting the site. (Ó Néill 1999, Killoran 66, 67-9)
