Roughly 40 metres north to south and 37 metres east to west, it is defined by a drystone wall so slight and insubstantial that it offers no obvious clue as to what it once enclosed or protected. There are no traces of heavier foundations beneath it, nothing to suggest a more formidable structure once stood here. Whatever boundary this wall was meant to mark, it was not built for defence.

What makes the site quietly compelling is what lies within and beside it. At the centre of the enclosure sits a souterrain, an underground stone-lined passage or chamber of the kind commonly associated with early medieval settlement in Ireland, most likely used for storage or as a place of refuge. A hut site occupies the south-eastern quadrant, suggesting that people lived here, or at least worked here, within this loosely defined space. Then, adjoining the enclosure to the south, a second enclosure continues the arrangement, and in its north-western corner there is another souterrain. The repetition of the pattern, two enclosures, two souterrains, all set within a broader field system on the Burren plain, points to a settlement that was organised and deliberate, even if its precise date and function remain unresolved. The Burren's thin soils and exposed karst have preserved such features with unusual clarity, which is part of why so much of the archaeology here survives at all, lying low against the limestone rather than buried beneath centuries of accumulation.
