The circular enclosure marked on the 1st edition of the OS map is shown as a circular mound on the 2nd edition. It survives as a slightly dished platform measuring 27.4m N-S and 22.8m E-W across its upper surface and a maximum of 1.2m in height. The edge of the mound is raised a maximum of .85m above the interior but is generally less and there is no clearly defined bank. There is no visible trace of the souterrain (KE035-048001-) marked on the 1st edition. The site lies near the foot of a N spur of Beenbo mountain, between the Glennahoo and Scorid rivers.
The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 620. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
