It is partly defined by upright slabs set on edge, which average .4m high. The interior is slightly raised above the surrounding ground level and is composed of stone, including some quartz. Two similar features occur close together nearby to SW. These average 3.3m x 3.2m and are defined at S by upright slabs.
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. 936. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
