Hut site

What is recorded here

On lower W slopes of Brandon mountain range. A pair of roughly circular conjoined huts of corbelled drystone construction. The NW hut KE034-002001- has a lintelled wall niche at SW, and a possible entrance at NNE, defined by a single low upright slab. The outer part of the wall of the hut is overlain by a modern field wall. D: 4.5m. H: .9m. The Man-made underground passage which extended W from this site to a rectangular foundation in the next field is no longer visible (local information). The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 1136. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 5 August 2013
