In undulating farmland overlooking E shore of Lough Corrib. This monument consists of a subcircular drystone platform (E-W 11.7m, N-S 10.5m, H 2.3m max.) delimited by stone revetment, partially collapsed on W side. A series of steps at SE give access to the summit. Just N of the centre is a much-collapsed rectangular stone structure (N-S 3.4m, E-W 3m, H 1.5m max.) defined by a slightly battered drystone revetment. There are four steps on its E side. An earthwork (GA055-060002-) lies immediately to NE, and a ringfort (GA055-058----) 70m to SW.
