They were recorded on the second edition of the Ordnance Survey map as modest circular outlines, and that paper record is now effectively the only trace of them. The site has since been absorbed by a plantation of trees, and the enclosures themselves can no longer be identified on the ground.

Their small size points toward a particular and somewhat obscure category: fionnán enclosures. The term refers to enclosures associated with the management or storage of fionnán grass, a coarse upland grass once harvested for bedding, thatching, or fodder, and these small circular features are a recognised if understudied part of the rural archaeological landscape of south Kerry. The detail comes from the archaeological survey of the Iveragh Peninsula compiled by A. O'Sullivan and J. Sheehan and published by Cork University Press in 1996, a systematic effort to document sites across a region where monuments of many kinds survive in varying states of preservation. In this case, the surviving state is none at all.
