The National Monuments Service's description
On the lower N facing slopes of Fananierin Mountain and the Drumgoff Brook valley, in rough grazing. A circular hut (diam. 2.8m), defined by a collapsed stone wall (Wth 1.2-1.3m; H 0.2-0.3m) with a possible entrance at the NE. Possibly one of a number of 'small rings of stones' noted by Price in 1937 (Corlett and Weaver 2002 Vol. 1, 286). (See also WI029-018----, WI029-019----, WI029-020001- and WI029-020001-).
