What is recorded here

Three or four stone huts crowd inside a low rath at An Fearann, their walls pressed against the northern bank as if the people refused to waste a single span of shelter. The depression measures barely four metres across, yet it holds enough shape to suggest hands that chopped, carried and stacked stone before rain blurred the edges. Perhaps a family lived there through winter storms, listening for water on slate and reading the dark by heartbeat.

Univallate rath KE026-010---- with 3 or possibly 4 stone huts in the interior. (3) (KE026-010003-) This abuts the enclosing bank at N. It now consists of a depression of indeterminate shape surrounded by a stony bank averaging .5m in height and 1.5m in width. The interior measures 4.1m NE-SW and 3.3m NW-SE. The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 412. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 7 August 2013
