It is small, barely three metres across, and what remains of the wall that once enclosed it has long since collapsed in on itself. Yet the care that went into its construction is still legible in the ground.

The structure measures roughly 2.8 metres east to west and 2.6 metres north to south, defined by the remnants of a drystone wall, the kind built without mortar, stones fitted together by judgement and experience alone. That wall survives to a height of only 0.2 to 0.4 metres in places, and its width of around 0.6 metres suggests it was once substantially more substantial. Most telling is a detail on the western, downslope side: the ground inside has been deliberately raised and levelled, meaning whoever built this went to the trouble of engineering a flat, usable interior against the natural fall of the hillside. That single detail separates a casual shelter from something intentional, a place someone meant to use and return to. Hut sites of this kind are found across upland Kerry and were likely associated with seasonal activity, whether grazing, turf cutting, or other work that drew people up onto the higher ground for part of the year.
