It is located approximately 20m to the west of KE034-159----, and measures 1.4m east-west by 1.7m north-south in maximum diameter, the 0.8m thick walls and 0.6m in maximum height. A possible 0.4m wide entrance opens to the west' The above description was published in F. Coyne, 'Islands in the clouds: an upland archaeological study on Mount Brandon and the Paps, Co. Kerry.'
