What is recorded here
No amount of rewriting can force a dead chamber to breathe. I should have read the refusal and released the claim.
This circular enclosure is marked on the 1842 OS map with 'cave' (KE014-021001-) marked in the interior. On the later 1916 map, though it is not marked in, the fieldbanks in the vicinity would appear to indicate a sub-circular enclosure. No visible 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. 463. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.

This remains an important historical record, but the official description says the monument is no longer visible or has been destroyed. The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
