What is recorded here

Knockanuha Hill still holds a circular cairn of irregular stones, partly hidden by gorse and marked by kerbing on its western edge. It sits in pasture on a south-facing slope, close enough to a possible enclosure for the two places to belong together in memory. People may have tended that land, buried someone they loved or simply remembered the shape of the hill through generations.

In pasture, on the S edge of a terrace, on the S-facing slope of Knockanuha Hill. A roughly circular cairn (3.9m N-S; 3.7m E-W; H 0.4m) comprised of stones of irregular shapes and sizes. The remains of kerbing is evident W-N. The cairn is partly obscured by gorse bushes. A possible enclosure (KE094-045002-) is on lower ground 30m to the SE. 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
