Enclosure in Erneen

In rough hill pasture, on a terrace, on a N-facing slope overlooking a river valley. A circular area (8.4m N-S; 8.2m E-W) defined by a grass- and heather-covered, collapsed drystone wall (T 0.6m; H 0.4m) which protrudes above the surface of the bog. The N portion of the interior is raised (H 0.4m) to compensate for the hillslope. 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
