In pasture, on elevated ground, overlooking the valley of the Roughty River. A rectangular area (20m E-W; 12m N-S) which is raised (H 0.8m) above the external ground level. The area proved difficult to examine due to dense overgrowth. According to the landowner, low grave-markers, some of which are cross-inscribed, exist beneath the overgrowth. It is known as 'the cillín' and was left undisturbed when the surrounding land was being reclaimed. There is a rath (KE085-014----) c. 70m to the NW.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Kerry. Volume I: South-West Kerry' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
