The opening to a souterrain (KE090-003----), .6m x .75m, is located on the NW face of the hillock. It leads into a drystone-built passage, aligned E-W, which is roofed with lintels. The W end of the passage appears to have collapsed. Local information records a second opening, now closed up, on the SE side of the hillock. This may indicate that a second souterrain passage is aligned at right angles to the first. The above description is derived from A. O'Sullivan and J.

Marked as a small enclosure on the first edition of the OS maps, this site is located in boggy pasture a short distance SW of Derriana Lough. It survives as an approximately circular field, as indicated on the second edition, with clear traces of the original enclosure visible beneath the boundary at S. Here upright slabs and stones, set on edge, revet the 1.4m thick wall externally. The wall survives to an average height of .5m. The area enclosed, which presumably reflects the original dimensions of the enclosure, measures 15m N-S x 14m E-W. The interior is traversed by a series of cultivation ridges (KE090-004----).
