Field boundary

What is recorded here

In rough hill pasture, on an E-facing slope overlooking the valley of the Dromoghty River. The remains of collapsed stone field walls (T 0.8m; H 0.6m) protrude intermittently above the surface of the bog in a roughly rectangular area (c. 220m NW-SE; c. 215m NE-SW). Many stones are set at right angles to the line of the walls. Two enclosures (KE101-092003-, KE101-092005-) and a hut site (KE101-092002-) are within this network of 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
