Cist in Garrydine

Cist

What is recorded here

In the early decades of this century a number of features, described as 'stone graves', were uncovered beside the monument during peat-cutting (local information). No visible traces of these survive. The above description is derived from A. O'Sullivan and J. Sheehan (compilers), 'The Iveragh peninsula: an archaeological survey of South Kerry'. Cork University Press (1996), no. 121. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 28 July 2013

This remains an important historical record, but the official description says the monument is no longer visible or has been destroyed. The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
