What is recorded here

This Man-made underground passage, not marked on the OS maps, is located at the S edge of a level area at the base of a cliff in rough mountain pasture which overlooks Kenmare Bay to S. The level area measures roughly 11m N-S 19m E-W, and is heavily overgrown. The Man-made underground passage, not now accessible, is stone-built and capped with roofing lintels (local information; Ó Cíobháin 1984a, 80-1). 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. 883. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 29 July 2013

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
