What is recorded here

In rough mountain terrain at the head of Com Amhais. A circular corbelled drystone structure, with 2 wall recesses in the interior, 1 possibly a window. Lintelled entrance is only .65m high. D: 3.8m. H: 2.5m. T: 1.25m. This is located at NE angle of a large, roughly triangular enclosure now barely discernible. Other structures built up against the wall of this enclosure may have been sheep-shelters or -folds. The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 1344. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
