Enclosure

What is recorded here

In rough pasture, on a level area with outcropping rock overlooking Kenmare Bay to the W. The remains of an oval enclosure (4m E-W; 3m N-S) defined by a roughly built drystone wall (T c. 0.4m; H 0.9m) constructed on a base of large stones. The enclosure is densely overgrown with ferns. It is indicated as an enclosed rectangular area on the 1895 OS 6-inch map. 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
