Not marked on the OS maps, this poorly preserved enclosure is located in rough, rocky pasture that slopesdown to Fort Point, Valencia Island. Its gapped enclosing element defines a subcircular area measuring 30m N-S x 35m E-W. The overgrown drystone wall survives to a maximum external height of 1.2m at E and has an average basal width of 2.3m. A number of walls converge at SW. Dense vegetation prevented positive identification of these features.
The above description is derived from A. O'Sullivan and J. Sheehan (compilers), 'The Iveragh peninsula: an archaeological survey of South Kerry'. Cork University Press (1996), no. 751. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
