At the edge of the flat boggy plain drained by the lower reaches of the Feohanagh river. A pair of conjoined, oval to circular huts, their walls now reduced to grass-grown banks, c. 0.5m high. They measure 6 x 5m and 5.5 x 3m internally, and within the larger W hut KE034-017---- is a Man-made underground passage (KE034-017002-), now lacking its roofing slabs. The passage measures 4.5m long x .6m wide x 1m high. A 3rd possible hut to SE of the smaller hut KE034-017001- is roughly triangular in outline and measures 4 x 4m internally.
The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 1107. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
