Indicated

This D-shaped enclosure is located on the E side of the Caragh river valley, abutting the modern road from Killorglin to Glencar. The land slopes down to SE and the site is located in a clearing in an afforested area. Modern walls enclose it at N and E, while its S limits are defined by a 3.6m high scarp. At W traces survive of an enclosing bank that measures 1.05m high externally, 2.5m wide and .5m high internally. Remnants of this stony bank also underlie the later wall at N. The enclosed area measures 42m N-S x 39.4m E-W internally. A modern burial-area occupies the central area of the enclosure and is bounded by numerous uninscribed grave-markers to W and S. These average .15m high and .18m wide. Also occurring within the site is a cross-inscribed slab and a boulder which is locally referred to as a mass-rock. 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. 923.
