Hut site

What is recorded here

Circular cashel KE026-008----, enclosing 3 hut-sites and a Man-made underground passage, is situated on fairly level pastureland at the base of the Brandon mountain range, overlooking Brandon Bay to E. The remains of 3 huts can be traced in the interior. (2) Immediately E of centre are the very ruined remains of a 2nd hut which may have been conjoined with the first. It consists of a horseshoe-shaped depression, 2.9m x 3.35m, surrounded by grass-covered stone collapse; it is open to SE. The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 586. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
