In rough hill pasture, on the NW side of a NE-SW valley, overshadowed by the slopes of Mount Gabriel at the NW and by a rocky ridge at the SE. The poorly preserved remains of a circular hut site (2.7m NE-SW; 2.6m NW-SE) defined by partially exposed stones (T 0.65m; H 0.2m) SW-NE that are either leaning or have fallen and elsewhere by traces of a low grassy bank SE-NW. The hut site has been raised (H 0.2m) at the SE and cut (D 0.3m) into the upslope at the NW to compensate for the hillslope. Another hut site (CO139-074001-) is 25m to the SE.
The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009).
