What is recorded here

Half of a ringfort, eaten by farm walls. What remains is a curved earthen bank from north to southeast, guarding a long oblong mound inside. The fieldbanks cut through the south and west, reducing the fortress to a fragment. Yet the mound still stands nine metres long, one metre high, aligned north-south within the broken circle.

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, about 18m to the NW of KE020-015002-, lies the third oblong mound (KE020-015003-), the long axis of which runs roughly N-S; it is 3m wide x 9m long internally and c 1m 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.
