What is recorded here

This circular enclosure, marked on the first edition of the OS map, is located on the top of a low rise in rough pasture. Only the lower courses of its subcircular enclosing element survive. These consist of roughly coursed boulders, no longer extant on the site's E side. At W it survives .65m high externally, .6m high internally and is 2.7m wide. Loose stones are scattered throughout the site's overgrown interior. The area enclosed measures 11.65m N-S x 13.5m E-W. 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. 769. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 29 July 2013
