What is recorded here

Clochan in Fán was a circular enclosure on the lower south slopes of Mount Eagle, overlooking Dingle Bay. Four clochauns stood inside what the Fair Plan called a Fort, but the earth has taken back the shape. The bay still catches the light, and the hill still holds the memory of a boundary drawn in stone.

Circular enclosure KE052-246---- marked on the 1st edition of the OS map no longer survives. Four clochauns were marked in the interior and the site was named 'Fort' on the Fair Plan. It was located on the lower S slopes of Mount Eagle overlooking Dingle Bay. The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 676. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 7 August 2013
