What is recorded here
In rough pasture, on a NE-facing slope, at the SE end of Reenadrolaun Point. This network of relict field walls is indicated by the remains of both linear and curvilinear walls (Wth c. 0.7m; H c. 0.9m) which occur intermittently in an irregular-shaped area (c. 120m NW-SE; c. 60m NE -SW). Upright stones from the walls protrude above the ground surface at irregular intervals. Elsewhere the remains consist of a scatter of stones on the ground surface. No definite field pattern was noted at ground level. There is a hut site (KE078-001----) to the NW. (See O'Sullivan and Sheehan 1996, 401, no. 1258)
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.
