This stone-built souterrain, not marked on the OS maps, is located in rough pasture at the head of the Ballinskelligs river valley. It is not now accessible but a small aperture between its roofing slabs enables a portion of a drystone-built passage to be viewed. This runs NNE-SSW and is at least 2m long, c. 8m wide, and c. .5m high.
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. 892. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
