What is recorded here
Foilatrisnig is an open stone enclosure on a sunny slope above Tralee Bay, holding a hut site ninety metres away. The wall stretches nine metres, breaks to the east, and still stands amid rough grazing and scrub. People may have kept livestock or sheltered from Atlantic weather inside that shallow box. The bay glitters below like a promise the stones never needed to explain.
In area of rough grazing and scrub on S-facing slope overlooking Tralee Bay to the N, hut site (KE036-116----) 90m to SE. Sub-rectangular shaped area (dims. c. 9m N-S) enclosed by a stone wall open to E visible on Digital Globe aerial photo taken between 2011-13 and on Google Earth orthoimages.
