In rough hill pasture, on a SW-facing slope, overlooking the valley of the Dromoghty River. A large irregular-shaped area (c. 82m NW-SE; c. 65m NE-SW) defined by the lower courses of a collapsed drystone wall (T 0.65m; H 0.5m) protruding above the surface of the bog. Sections of the wall at W are missing. There is a hut site (KE102-091001-) in the interior, off-centre to the NE and a group of nine cairns (KE102-091003-, KE102-091004-, KE102-091005-, KE102-091006-, KE102-091007-, KE102-091008-, KE102-091009-, KE102-091010-, KE102-091011-) lies c. 120m to the E. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Kerry. Volume I: South-West Kerry' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009).
