This site is located on steeply sloping pastureland on the lower NW slopes of Brickany mountain overlooking the Anascaul valley. It was shown as a circular univallate enclosure on the 1st edition of the OS map and was named 'Fort' on the Fair Plan. Faint traces of a roughly circular bank survive and are particularly noticeable on the downhill side where the level interior is raised above the external ground level. The remains measure c. 30m in overall diameter.
The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 627. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
