Field system in Scarteen (dunkerron South By.)

In rough pasture, on a S-facing slope. The remains of linear and curvilinear field walls (T 0.7m; H 0.25m) protrude intermittently above the surface of the bog in a roughly rectangular area measuring c. 400m E-W x c. 150m N-S. Some sections of the walls disappear into deeper bog. 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
