What is recorded here

No visible chamber, no chamber visible. The boundary ring remains, but the passage disappears beneath soil and memory. Arda Mór keeps its shape while withholding its meaning.
Roughly circular univallate rath KE054-008---- is situated in a commanding position on the E-W ridge that bounds the S side of the Lispole valley. The interior is occupied by several mounds and depressions of uncertain origin, but a small lintelled cavity in the NE sector may be part of a Man-made underground passage KE054-008001-. The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 289. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 6 August 2013
