The burnt material is exposed in a small area on top of the mound and also along the W side by the stream. The NE end of a relict field boundary (KE084-057002-) lies c. 5m to the SW and a hut site (KE084-057001-) is located further to the SW. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Kerry. Volume I: South-West Kerry' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 30 May 2011
