What is recorded here
In rough hill pasture, on a S-facing slope, overlooking the valley of the Sheen River. A collapsed curvilinear stone wall (T 0.5m; H 0.4m), which protrudes above the surface of shallow bog, runs upslope to the N for c. 65m and curves slowly to the NW and W for c. 25m. Upright stones, set at right angles to the line of the wall, were noted at irregular intervals.
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.
