What is recorded here

Half-swallowed by bog on a ridge east of Derrynacaheragh Hill, the circular cairn keeps its shape through rough pasture and old field lines. Stones set end-on still mark its edge, waiting for hands that last touched them before the water rose. It is not a monument for tourists but a living boundary, remembering the people who shaped that land long before maps existed.

In rough hill pasture, near the N edge of a col, on a ridge to the E of Derrynacaheragh Hill and within a network of pre-bog field boundaries (KE102-063001-). A circular cairn (5.3m N-S; 4.8m E-W; H 0.5m) which is partially hidden in bog. Stones set end-on suggest kerbing along the circumference. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Kerry. Volume I: South-West Kerry' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 30 May 2011

A circular cairn, likely of Bronze Age date, possibly associated with funerary or ritual activity; its location within a network of pre-bog field boundaries suggests a broader landscape context of early land use or territorial markers.
