Hut site

What is recorded here

In rough unevenly surfaced hill pasture, on blanket bog, on the NE-facing slopes of Knocknagullion and within a network of relict field boundaries (KE091-114009-). The remains of a circular hut site (diam. 4.2m) defined by the lower courses of a collapsed drystone wall (T 0.6m; H 0.5m) which protrudes above the surface of the bog. Rubble is scattered along the perimeter of the hut site. Relict field walls abut the hut site at E and W. There is a fulacht fia (KE091-114006-) c. 30m to the SE. 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
