What is recorded here

Listonavally holds a circular enclosure twenty-six metres across, its interior raised above the surrounding land. beneath that ancient rim, a man-made passage may still wind through forgotten chambers. The structure has endured long enough to tempt imagination, even when evidence fades from sight.

Listonavally/Lios Tón an Bhaile: Circular univallate enclosure KE053-022----, c. 26m in diameter, is defined partly by a very low bank, partly by a low scarp, the interior being raised up to 1.5m above the external ground level, and partly by a modern field wall which preserves the line of the original bank. There is reputed to be a Man-made underground passage here, possibly that described in the OSL as consisting of several chambers and passages and as being located within a circular hut foundation in a destroyed rath. The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 614. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 7 August 2013
