Univallate rath KE053-073---- with souterrain KE053-073001- was shown on the OS maps only as a small subrectangular field.
There is no visible trace of the souterrain KE053-073001- which lay near the S edge of the enclosure. It consisted of at least 1 chamber or passage and a creepway (local information). The only feature now visible in the interior is a grass-grown cairn of stones with a slight central depression. This measures 3.5m x 2.5m x a maximum of .6m in height.
The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 349. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
