Two clochans once stood here, side by side within what appears to have been a shared enclosure. A clochan is a dry-stone beehive hut, built without mortar using a corbelling technique that layers flat stones inward and upward until they close at the top, a construction method associated especially with early Christian monastic communities along the western seaboard. That two should have stood together, enclosed within a common bank or wall, suggests a site of some deliberate organisation, however modest in scale.

By the time the first edition of the Ordnance Survey map was made in the 1840s, the structures were still present, or at least recognisable enough to be recorded. The cartographers marked two clochan forms surrounded by a single ring of hachures, the fine radiating lines surveyors used to indicate a raised or sloping feature, in this case probably the remains of a surrounding bank or wall. Sometime between that survey and 1895, the site was destroyed entirely. The window between those two dates is the only measure of its loss, and it is a narrow one, just enough to confirm that the destruction was relatively swift and came during a period when land clearance, building reuse, and agricultural improvement were quietly erasing features like this across the peninsula. J. Cuppage documented what the map had preserved in the 1986 Corca Dhuibhne archaeological survey of the Dingle Peninsula, giving the site its place in the record even after the stones themselves had gone.
