What is recorded here

A 14-metre oval mound rises beside a worn rath just south of a small Kerry stream, possibly connected to the older earthwork. Cattle have flattened much of the rath, yet the mound still stands 1.4 metres above the ground with a clear view in every direction. Whatever it marked, it did so openly, without walls or locks, trusting sight and memory to keep it alive.

Lying just S of a small stream, with a fairly good view in all directions, univallate rath KE021-025---- has been much levelled by cattle. About 9.5m NE of this rath is an oval raised area (KE021-025002-), 14m N-S and 10m E-W internally. It rises to c 1.4m above the external ground level. This mound is possibly connected to the rath in some way. The above description is derived from C. Toal, ‘North Kerry Archaeological Survey’. Dingle.
