Clochan

What is recorded here

Clochan in Baile An Bhúlaeraigh Theas sits on the south slopes of Knockmoylemore, overlooking the broad valley that surrounds Trabeg. A small clochaun was once recorded inside the fort, but the banks and mounds no longer form recognisable features. Whatever life moved through that hidden chamber has faded into soil, leaving only the wide view and the memory of a place that held more than it still shows.
Lissawalla/Lios an Bhaile: Situated on the S slopes of Knockmoylemore, overlooking the broad valley that surrounds Trabeg. A small clochaun (KE043-184003-) has been recorded in the fort (OSNB Garfinny, 36), but the banks and mounds now present in the interior do not form any recognisable features. The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 316. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 6 August 2013
