Field boundary

What is recorded here

In hill pasture, on a SE-facing slope, overlooking the valley of the Baurearagh River. A curvilinear stretch of relict field wall (T c. 0.7m; H 0.4m) emerges from a bog and extends in an E-W direction for a distance of c. 55m. The wall is in a collapsed state with stones from the upper courses scattered at intervals along the perimeter. The large lower course stones protrude above the bog. There is a hut site (KE109-064003-) immediately to the S of the field wall. Three other hut sites (KE109-064001-, KE109-064002-, KE109-064005-) are c. 30m to the N, c. 11m to the S and c. 60m to the NW, respectively. 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
