Cloghaun

This oval-shaped hut, measuring 4.8m N-S x 3.5m E-W internally, interrupts the circuit of the enclosure (KE080-046001-) at NE. Its corbelled walls survive to an internal height of 1m and average 1.7m thick. The lintelled doorway at W, described by the Delaps (1910, 186), is now collapsed; it measures .8m wide at base. Traces of a window or wall-niche are preserved at E. The above description is derived from O'Sullivan, A. and Sheehan, J. (compilers) 'The Iveragh peninsula: an archaeological survey of South Kerry'. Cork University press. (1996), no. 959. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 13 June 2013
