What is recorded here

Lettercannon holds two possible places, a stone hut and a megalithic tomb, locked together inside a modern wind farm. The hut is a circular stone arrangement barely wider than a person can stretch across, while the tomb remains a tentative ghost beside it. They are fenced off, not because they are certain, but because even doubt needs a boundary.

Possible hut site identified by Miriam Carroll, Tobar Archaeological Services following monitoring of a wind farm at Lettercannon, Co. Kerry 17 February 2009. Two possible sites, located within 5m of each other, which were described as comprising 'of a possible stone hut site and a possible ruinous megalithic tomb (KE085-053001-), the latter is a very tentative suggestion'. Both are located within a windfarm (under construction) but are fenced off. Hut site described by Miriam Carroll as; 'A possible stone hut was also noted c. 5m to the south-east (of KE085-053001-) and consists of an overgrown circular arrangement of stones (diam. 2.6m).'
