Hut site

What is recorded here

Henry records two further circular huts within the enclosure (1957, 74), which may be identified with the two overgrown circular mounds in the in the NW (KE079-051003-) and NE (KE079-051004-) quadrants. These measure 6m and 8m in diameter respectively. Donaldson recorded that the stone foundations of these huts were quarried away in the early 1920s, during the construction of the nearby waterworks (1956). 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. 478. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 28 July 2013
