A cashel is a stone-walled ringfort, built without mortar, and this one encloses an oval interior roughly 36 metres east to west and just under 30 metres north to south. What catches the attention is not its size but its detail: a long entrance passage in the south-east sector, still lined with upright stones reaching over a metre in height, and a very large slab lying across the threshold that may once have served as a lintel. The wall itself, where it survives best, stands 1.35 metres high and nearly two metres wide, built from large boulders in the drystone tradition. Along the south-west, part of the wall has been absorbed into a field boundary and its upper courses rebuilt, a small reminder of how agricultural life has quietly rearranged ancient structures over the centuries.

Inside the enclosure are the remains of two huts, the better-preserved of the two sitting in the north-west corner. This structure is circular in plan, set on the south-east side of a small oval courtyard roughly 6.4 metres by 5.5 metres, and its north-east wall section rises almost to what would have been roof level, standing about a metre above the rubble that now fills the interior. Its west-facing entrance passage splays inward, narrowing from two metres wide at the outer face to just 65 centimetres inside, a feature that would have made the doorway easier to defend or seal. More unusual still is a low, roughly built drystone chamber tucked into a mound against the outer face of the hut wall at the north. The chamber is no longer accessible, but its flagged roof, partially collapsed, can be glimpsed through the gaps. The second hut, to the south, is far more fragmentary; circular, only about 1.8 metres across internally, it barely protrudes above ground level, and it is not entirely clear whether what remains represents the full wall thickness or only its inner face. The site was documented by J. Cuppage in the 1986 Corca Dhuibhne archaeological survey of the Dingle Peninsula.
