Field boundary in Mangerton

Field boundary

What is recorded here

In rough hill pasture, in unenclosed commonage, on the S-facing slope of Mangerton Mountain. This area (300m NE-SW; 200m NW-SE) contains stretches of collapsed drystone wall (T 0.7m; H 0.6m) which protrude intermittently above the surface of the bog. No definite pattern could be deciphered from ground level. There are three hut sites (KE085-035001-, KE085-035003-, KE085-035006-) and two enclosures (KE085-035005-, KE085-035002-) 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
