What is recorded here
In hill pasture, on a level break in a SE-facing slope, overlooking the valley of the Baurearagh River. The remains of a D-shaped hut site (2.8m N-S) are well defined by a collapsed drystone wall (T c. 0.55m; H 0.7m) with a straight N side (L 4.2m E-W). Where visible, the lower course stones protrude above the bog. A relict field boundary (KE109-064004-) is c. 11m to the N and there are two hut sites (KE109-064001-, KE109-064003-) 50m to the N and 21m to the W, respectively.
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.
