Field boundary in Carrig West

In rough hill pasture, on a W-facing slope to the S of Moll's Gap. The remains of mainly curvilinear field walls (T 0.5m; H 0.4m) which protrude intermittently above the surface of the bog throughout a roughly rectangular area (c. 100m E-W; c. 70m N-S). Many of the stones are set at right angles to the line of the walls. There are two hut sites (KE083-017----, KE083-017001-) within this network of relict field walls. 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
