One of a group of five huts and located about 35m down-slope of KE087-021---- to SE. A drystone corbelled hut of almost square plan. The walls, with horizontally coursed faces, have collapsed at intervals. A basal row of upright slabs flanks the inner wall-face at SE, where a gap, 1.1m wide, may represent the entrance. Interior is filled with stone collapse. Here, Westropp noted lamb shelters (1912, 299). D: 6.1m 5.8m. H: .8m. T: 1.6m.
The above description is derived from A. O'Sullivan and J. Sheehan (compilers), 'The Iveragh peninsula: an archaeological survey of South Kerry'. Cork University Press (1996), no. 1136. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
