What is recorded here
There is no visible trace of the circular enclosure marked at this location on the first edition of the OS map. It was located in pastureland less than 300m S of the Laune river.
The above description is derived from A. O'Sullivan and J. Sheehan (compilers), 'The Iveragh peninsula: an archaeological survey of South Kerry'. Cork University Press (1996), no. 781. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.

A local fairy fort (ringfort/rath); wider significance not recorded.
This remains an important historical record, but the official description says the monument is no longer visible or has been destroyed. The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
