Hut site in Coorleagh

Hut site

What is recorded here

In rough hill pasture, on a SW-facing slope, in the valley of Coomeelan stream. The remains of a circular hut site (diam. 2.3m) defined by a partially grass-covered, collapsed drystone wall (T 0.6m; H 0.3m). The lower courses of the wall protrude above the surface of the bog. A break at SE may indicate an entrance. There is a relict field boundary (KE103-025001-) c. 100m to the NE. 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
