What is recorded here

This site is marked as a circular enclosure on the first edition of the OS map. It is located on the N side of Coomduff and affords a commanding view along the Inny river valley. The site is defined by a very slight bank, averaging 2m wide, which encloses an area 13.5m N-S x 15.5m E-W. A number of large flat slabs mark the W side of the bank, which may indicate the former presence there of external stone facing. The interior of the enclosure is occupied by a scatter of small loose stones. 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. 737. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 29 July 2013
