What is recorded here

Camp (corkaguiny By.) contains a circular univallate rath on the E slopes of Corrin mountain, overlooking the Finglas river valley and Tralee Bay. Its outer bank holds a small drystone-lined chamber, open to the east and possibly part of an underground passage, while an oval hollow lies directly inside. The chamber may have hidden people, stored things or marked a boundary, but its true purpose remains unclear.

Circular univallate rath KE036-045---- is situated on the E slopes of Corrin mountain, commands a panoramic view over the valley of the Finglas river and through the valley entrance to Tralee Bay. In the outer face of the bank is what appears to be a small, partly drystone-lined chamber measuring 1.7m N-W, .7m E-W and .75m in height; it is open to E. The function of this feature is not clear but it may be part of a Man-made underground passage. Directly inside the bank at this point there is an oval hollow measuring 6.5m NNW-SSE, 3.5m NNE-SSW and a maximum of .8m deep. The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 356. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
