Hut site in Com Dhíneol Theas

Clochán Súgach: On a steep, rocky slope, a little below and to W of Beennacouma, overlooking Coumeenoole village. A pair of conjoined hut foundations. D: 4.2m and 4 x 2.5m. H: 1.6m and .5m. Abutting S side of larger structure is a partly sunken, lintelled chamber, interpreted by Macalister (1899, 278) as a Man-made underground passage, but more likely to have been a sheep-shelter. The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 1228. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 5 August 2013
