What is recorded here

In rough hill pasture, on an E-facing slope, overlooking the valley of the Dromoghty River and within a network of relict field boundaries (KE101-092004-). An oval area (4.8m E-W; 3.9m N-S) defined by a collapsed drystone wall (T 0.65m; H 0.5m). The drystone wall protrudes above the surface of the bog. Loose stones are scattered around the enclosure externally. Two relict field walls abut the enclosure along the SE and SW arcs. There is another enclosure (KE101-092006-) c. 12m to the NNE. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Kerry. Volume I: South-West Kerry' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 30 May 2011
