Enclosure

What is recorded here

Enclosure in Cloghermore is a marked ancestral place in County Kerry, Ireland. Its identity is preserved in the name and remains distinctive within the regional landscape. The story above is built from that known identity and the surrounding fiction already given.
'A number of curving banks .....on average 0.55m high are visible on the southern side of the reef, to the north-west of the enclosure containing the cave entrance. The banks are associated with a shallow depression and may indicate the presence of another archaeological feature.' Description from ‘The Prehistoric Settlement of the Lee Valley, Tralee, Co. Kerry; A Landscape Perspective’ by Michael Connolly. PhD Thesis UCC 2008 Date of upload: 22 June 2012
