Enclosure in Erneen

In rough hill pasture, in a sheltered hollow, on a N-facing slope overlooking a river valley. An oval area (9.8m E-W; 6.7m N-S) defined by a collapsed drystone wall (T 0.5m; H 0.8m). A boulder (L 4m) is incorporated into the wall NNW-N and there are contiguous stone slabs N-SE. The interior is level. Three hut sites (KE103-041004-, KE103-041005-, KE103-041006-) adjoin the enclosure externally SW-SE. A relict field boundary (KE103-041001-) terminates nearby. 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
