What is recorded here

Moss and marble rubble bury a tall stone tower and its long defensive banks on a hidden Kerry cliff. The earthwork still holds its shape beneath the green rot, waiting for someone strong enough to clear the slopes and reveal the room where human life once turned.

On the sides of a large elevated limestone outcrop with views restricted by a copse of deciduous trees. Occasional traces of the remains of a linear bank (Wth c. 1.5m; H 0.5m) with considerable stone inclusions are evident outside the N (L c. 25m) and W (L c. 40m) sides of a possible tower house (KE048-035001-). The earthwork is obscured by large quantities of moss-covered rubble, which is strewn down the slopes.
