What is recorded here

In rough hill pasture, on a W-facing slope in the valley of the Coomeelan stream. An oval area (9m E-W; 4.8m N-S) defined by a partially collapsed drystone wall (T 0.65m; H 0.5m) N-S and SW-NW and by outcropping rock which is incorporated into the wall S-SW and NW-N. The interior is raised (H 0.3m) SE-S. There is a hut site (KE103-050001-) within the enclosure. 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
