What is recorded here
A rectangular house (KE087-018002-) in the interior measures 8.5m NW-SE x 5.8m x NE-SW internally, and its overgrown stone walls average .8m wide and .4m high. A well-defined doorway, .8m wide, is located in the SE end-wall; two threshold slabs remain in situ.A short stretch of stone-faced bank and a small stone-lined oval depression are located immediately adjacent to the external NE angle of the house; their functions are unclear. In the 1980s a trench was dug parallel to the NE side-wall of the house.
The above description is derived from A. O'Sullivan and J. Sheehan (compilers), 'The Iveragh peninsula: an archaeological survey of South Kerry'. Cork University Press (1996), no. 490. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
