What is recorded here

Knockglass More holds an 18m stone ring called Lios an Bhranair, overlooking Tralee Bay. The wall has no entrance and contains modern mortar, suggesting people rebuilt an older line rather than preserving an unbroken ancient fort. Sycamores now occupy the centre, turning a disputed boundary marker into a small green room above the bay.

Internal diam. 18m Lissabranner/Lios an Bhranair: A circular enclosure, situated on a S facing slope overlooking Tralee Bay. The enclosing wall measures 1.5m in height and .8m in width and is similar in construction to adjacent field boundaries. The lack of an entrance gap, and the presence of mortar in places, suggests that the wall has been re-built in modern times, at least in part, and it is possible that the wall is entirely modern, though following the line of an earlier cashel. The interior is occupied by a small plantation of sycamore trees. The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 582. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 7 August 2013
