What is recorded here

In rough pasture on lower W slopes of Brandon mountain. The remains of 2 or 3 huts and a Man-made underground passage (KE034-063001-) located within a roughly circular enclosure (KE034-063004-), 19.2 to 18m in diameter internally, probably defined by a stone wall which is now only barely discernible. A field wall bisects the enclosure N-S, kinking W at the centre to run on top of the W wall of the easternmost of 2 conjoined huts. The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 1096. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
