What is recorded here

In rough hill pasture, on the lower NE-facing slopes of Knocknaveacal. The remains of a D-shaped hut site (2.7m N-S) defined by the lower courses of a collapsed, curving drystone wall (T c. 0.6m; H 0.5m) with a straight S side (L 4.1m) formed by the bank of a small river. The lower courses of the wall are partly covered by blanket bog. The E portion of the interior is built up (H 0.3m) and the W portion is cut (D 0.3m) into the upslope. The E arc is stone faced externally. There is an enclosure (KE108-054----) 24m to the N. 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. Date of upload: 30 May 2011
