Possible house site described by O'Kelly (1944, 22) as following; 'This may be a hut site or an animal enclosure. It is on the S. slope of Knockainy. It consists of a rectangular level space which is bounded on the N.W. and S.E. sides by walls built of single rows of stones. The N.E. side is formed from the natural rock of the higher part of the hill, which has been quarried out to a depth of about 3' [0.9m], while the S.W. side seems to have been closed by an earthen bank. The entrance is on the S.E. side and is 7' [2.1m] wide and 13' [4m] from the S. corner. The jambs on each side of the ope are of large stones 1' 6" [0.45m] high. It measures overall 36' [11m] by 30' [9m]. There are many ancient fences in its vicinity'.
