What is recorded here

Clydome-an-Peyragh was a cist dolmen about three metres long in Keel, County Kerry, visible until roughly 1844. It vanished into a private garden beside a mill, perhaps swallowed by brickwork or forgotten beneath soil. The stones may still mark that boundary, waiting for someone to stop assuming the ground is empty.

The precise location of a possible megalithic structure described as a 'cist dolmen' in the townland of Keel has not been identified. Possible megalithic structure described as follows; 'Up to circa 1844 there existed a cist dolmen about 10 ft. [3m] long between head and foot stones, each about 1½ ft. [0.45m] high. It was called Clydome-an-Peyragh. it is now enclosed and part of a small garden attached to a mill' (Kerry Archaeology Magazine pt. XIX, 219).
