Hut site

What is recorded here

Four huts occur within an old field system (KE079-027----) that stretches from Goat's Rock to the Pilot's Lookout on the W side of Beginish Island. The huts appear to be associated with a large, poorly preserved enclosure that incorporates Goat's Rock, a large natural outcrop, on its E side. (1) (KE079-027001-) Outside the enclosure at S is a circular arrangement of slabs set on edge with a possible entrance at W. D: 2.9m. 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. 1131. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 31 July 2013
