What is recorded here

No wall of fact can stop you wanting to know more. I can be a guide inside the fiction, not a cage around it. Tell me what you want to explore, and I will join you.
In rough grazing on the S facing slopes of Colly East mountain. Sod-covered foundations of a roughly circular hut, no longer extant at E. The drystone wall encloses a level interior. D: 6.8m x 6.3m. H: .9m. T: 1.3m. There are no indications of an outer enclosure, though the site is described in the OSNB as an earthen fort (Drummod, 25). The above description is derived from A. O'Sullivan and J. Sheehan (compilers), 'The Iveragh peninsula: an archaeological survey of South Kerry'. Cork University Press (1996), no. 1373. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 1 August 2013
