What is recorded here
Lismorenacoola stands on the SE slopes of Corrin Hill in County Kerry, Ireland. A possible hut occupies the centre of the enclosure, marked by an ill-defined bank up to .4m high around a roughly sub-circular space c. 2m in diameter. The elevated position suggests people valued the view, the light or the distance from ordinary traffic.
