Field boundary

What is recorded here

In rough pasture, on the S-facing slope of Mangerton Mountain. A section of collapsed field wall (T 1m; H 0.4-0.5m) extends to the SW for a distance of c. 20m and then curves gradually downslope in a SE direction for c. 30m where it disappears into deeper bog. There is a hut site (KE084-057001-) c. 25m to the W and a fulacht fia (KE084-057003-) lies c. 5m NE of the NE end of the relict field wall. 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
