What is recorded here
Log Na Gcapall holds a circular rath beside the roadway, facing southeast toward Minard. You can still picture a person standing inside that shallow bowl, watching the water change colour or waiting for someone returning from the boat. The stone circle has kept that human shape longer than memory, turning an ordinary road into a place where attention still belongs to the sea.
Roughly circular rath KE054-036---- lies beside the roadway on a gentle SE facing slope overlooking Minard.
A possible house site has previously been recorded in the interior (KAS).
The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 503. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
