What is recorded here
In rough pasture, on a SW-facing slope overlooking the valley of the Sheen River. The remains of a D-shaped hut site (1.8m NW-SE) defined by a drystone wall (T 0.5m; H 0.3m) with a straight NW side (L 2.6m NE-SW), formed by the SE face of a relict field boundary (KE093-054003-). The drystone wall protrudes above the peat. There is an enclosure (KE089-054----) 25m to the SSE.
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.
