What is recorded here
Enclosure in Tuar Sáilín is a D-shaped drystone chamber beside a Kerry farm track, its straight wall reaching 1.5m after later reuse. The larger boulders and narrow 6m interior suggest people shaped the edge of an old field, a livestock fold or a forgotten garden. Later hands may have heightened the wall for a new purpose while preserving the curve already drawn in stone.
A D-shaped enclosure immediately to the west of the farm track It is built of drystone walling incorporating larger boulders in places. The straight side measures 11m, N-S, parallel to the track, and 6m E-W (internally). The straight side has clearly been reused in more recent times and built up to a maximum height of 1.5m.
