What is recorded here
No visible trace remains. The earth was taken, the boundary erased, the memory thinned. What is left is a absent shape, a fort that refuses to be forgotten even though it can no longer be seen.
Marked on the 1841-42 and 1914 OS maps as a circular enclosure, this site has been levelled and no surface trace survives.
The above description is derived from C. Toal, ‘North Kerry Archaeological Survey’. Dingle. Brandon in association with FAS Training and Employment Authority (1995), no. 265. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
