In pasture, on N-facing slope. Roughly circular area (23.1m N-S; 25m E-W) enclosed by earthen bank (H 1.2m) SE->N, stone faced in parts; scarp (H 0.6m) elsewhere. External fosse silted up. Bank broken to SW and NW. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 1: West Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1992).

Situated in an area of outcropping rock with dense furze and brambles, overlooking Dunmanus Bay to the S. The monument was cleared of vegetation on rediscovery in 1995 (see Power et al. 1992, 43). The circle is incomplete: four erect and seven prostrate slabs indicate a circle of eleven stones. Both entrance stones and the axial stone are prostrate and the sockets for three fallen stones are visible with some packing-stones still in situ. Orthostats are 0.9m to 1.4m L, 0.2m to 0.55m T and 0.8m to 1.4m H. The internal measurement along the main axis, aligned NE-SW, is c. 7.5m. Two shallow pits were dug within the circle in modern times, one at the centre and the other beside an orthostat to S. The cover-stone of a possible boulder-burial (CO130-016001-) stands in the NW quadrant of the circle and a second example (CO130-043----) stands immediately outside the circle to S. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009).
