In undulating pasture, with views W to Killarney and Macgillycuddy's Reeks. A roughly circular area (diam. 22m) enclosed by an earthen bank (Wth 3.4m; int. H 1m; ext. H 0.8m) partially obscured by trees and bushes and with breaks at NE and SW. The interior is in pasture and there is a multiple-stone circle (KE067-020002-) at the centre. A limited excavation in 1998 revealed the presence of a steep-sided fosse (Wth 3m at top, 1m at base; D 2.5m) directly inside the enclosing bank and also confirmed that the enclosure is prehistoric in date (O'Brien 2000, 94-5; 2004, 323-38). A standing stone pair (KE067-020004-) is c. 14m to the S. (O'Brien 2000, 94-5; 2004, 323-38)
