What is recorded here
In rough hill pasture, on a NW-facing slope, in the valley of the Sheen River. The remains of collapsed stone walls (T 0.6m; H 0.4m) protrude at intervals above the surface of the bog and indicate the remnants of a field system covering an area c. 270m NW-SE x c. 230 NE-SW. The walls are mainly curvilinear and suggest fields of many shapes and sizes.
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.
