Enclosure

What is recorded here

Located on the top of a bog-covered ridge between Knocknabreeda and Knockbrack mountains, this small, poorly preserved enclosure, not marked on the OS maps, overlooks the Cummeenduff Glen at W. The enclosing wall, which features occasional slabs set on edge, survives .4m high and 1.1m wide. The entrance gap faces E, and is .8m wide. The site measures 8.2m x 7.75m internally. 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. 746. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 29 July 2013
