In pasture, on a S-facing slope overlooking the valley of the Roughty River. Indicated as an oval enclosure (c. 80m E-W; c. 60m N-S) on the 1895 OS 6-inch map. An arc (C c. 58m N-S) of drystone wall (T 1.4m; H 0.3-0.8m) is evident NNW-S. According to local information, the remainder of the wall was removed during field clearance. A farm road respects the E arc of the enclosure. There is an entrance (Wth 2.8m) at SSE which is now used for farming purposes. The interior slopes down gently to the SE.
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.
