In rough peaty pasture, on a S-facing slope overlooking the valley of the Sheen River. The enclosure (original diam. c. 60m) survives as an arc of collapsed drystone walling (L 140m; Wth 2m; H 0.3m) SW-SE, best preserved N-SE. The remainder of the enclosing wall SE-SW appears to continue beneath deeper peat cover. Eight cairns (KE093-094002-, KE093-094003-, KE093-094004-, KE093-094005-, KE093-094006-, KE093-094007-, KE093-094008-, KE093-094009-) are arranged in a rough arc in the E half of the enclosure.
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.
