What is recorded here

Arc-shaped earthwork in Banna East, County Kerry, with an oblong mound inside, cut back by fieldbanks but still marking a old rath. The surviving bank curves from north to east to southeast, and the inner mound stretches northeast to southwest, wide enough for people to have lived, buried or remembered around it.

Situated to the W of KE020-017----, univallate rath KE020-015---- has been severely cut on the S to E side and S through W to NW side by fieldbanks. What survives is an earthen enclosing bank which runs from the N to E to SE, giving it an arc-shaped appearance. In the interior, just inside the entrance, is an oblong mound (KE020-015001-) running in a NE-SW direction, 2.4m wide x 14.4m long internally and .8m high. The above description is derived from C. Toal, ‘North Kerry Archaeological Survey’. Dingle. Brandon in association with FAS Training and Employment Authority (1995), no. 670. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 2 August 2013
