This narrow promontory is located between two narrow inlets, Coosnaskirtane and Coosacunnig, a short distance S of KE087-046----. It is defended at its landward end by two low banks which average .65m high and stretch 15.5m across its neck. The outer bank is poorly preserved. The promontory extends SW for 46m; at 23m, however, its width is reduced to 3m by a narrow inlet on its N side. At this point a bank spans the promontory, and reaches a maximum height of 1.1m. No other features are apparent.
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. 450. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
