The structure is roughly circular, measuring about eight metres north to south and seven metres east to west, with walls that survive to only around forty centimetres in height and are largely ruinous. What makes it worth pausing over is a single upright stone slab still standing in the eastern section of the wall, a metre tall and noticeably more deliberate in character than the rubble scattered across the interior.

Enclosures of this kind, defined by drystone walling and set into marginal upland ground, are a recurring feature of the Kerry landscape. They were typically associated with agricultural or domestic activity, often functioning as enclosures for livestock or as the outer boundary walls of small settlement clusters. The presence of a hut site recorded within the western sector of this enclosure supports that reading, suggesting this was once a working place, a small unit of occupation or seasonal use rather than anything ceremonial. The bog has crept in around it over time, which is in one sense destructive but in another preserving; peat growth tends to slow the further deterioration of whatever it covers. The eastern slab, still upright and measurably intact, is a reminder that these structures were built with some care even at their most modest scale.
