In rough hill pasture, on a break on a N-facing slope, overlooking Kenmare Bay. Two layers of burnt material are exposed on opposing faces of a recently excavated V-shaped NE-SW drain (Wth 2.4m) through a bog (D 0.6m). The opposing layers at NE (L 1.6m; D 0.4m) and at SW (L 1.4m; D 0.4m) are 0.2m below the surface of the bog. An enclosure (KE109-002----) is c. 40m to the N. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Kerry. Volume I: South-West Kerry' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 30 May 2011
