OSullivan/1996, 267: `Located on a gentle S facing slope at the foot of Foilclogh mountain, on the E bank of a small stream, this site provides broad views across boglands to Ballinskelligs Bay...it is approximately circular in plan and is enclosed by a bank which features an entrance at E and an arrangment of pillars at W. This latter feature may represent a second entrance. Within the interior is a circular hut, three possible leachta and a cross slab. An ogham stone is now located outside the E. entrance, and a souterrain was recently revealed immediately outside the enclosure at WNW'.
