This small enclosure is located on poor and slightly marshy pastureland, c. 250m from the sea-cliffs about a half mile (.8km) S of Clogher Head. A circular area, 3.1 to 3.3m in diameter, is enclosed by a bank and external fosse with a causewayed entrance at N and a possible causeway across the fosse at S. The fosse is 1.9m wide and a maximum of .3m deep. The bank is composed of earth and small stones and is 2.9m wide and a maximum of .75m high. To W of the site are the remains of disused field fences predating those marked on the 2nd edition of the OS map.
The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 1536. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
