What is recorded here

This circular enclosure is clearly marked on the 1841-42 map. Although it appears on the later edition map, it is somewhat distorted. It is very difficult to distinguish this enclosure today, as it is sited within an undulating field. Dingle. Brandon in association with FAS Training and Employment Authority (1995), no. 1074.

From the National Monuments Service (Archaeological Survey of Ireland) record KE017-009
