Clochán (Cell) B described in 1996 as follows; 'Clochaun B: This clochaun and the adjoining clochaun C [KE104A001035-] are constructed on a stepped platform which rises up to 1.7m above the level of the paved terrace at SE and appears to overlie the foundation courses of clochaun A [KE104A001032-] at SW. A curved flight of steps at the S side of clochaun B gives access to a level strip of ground at the rear of clochauns B-D. The internal dimensions of the clochaun are 2.9m x 2.8m at the level of its flagged floor, which slopes down towards the doorway. The latter is 1.3m high and inclines in elevation from a basal width of 0.61m to 0.47m under the head; the floor occurs a step above its threshold slabs. Two wall-niches and an internally projecting slab, 0.95m above floor level, occur within. The dome, with its restored exterior, is closed by a large slab and gives an internal height of 3.15m' (O'Sullivan and Sheehan 1996, 278-90, no. 948 (6)).
