Hut site

What is recorded here

In rough hill pasture, on a terrace on a SE-facing slope, overlooking the valley of the Feabunaun stream and within a network of relict field boundaries (KE102-062007-). The remains of a rectangular hut site (4.2m NW-SE; 2.65m NE-SW) defined by a drystone wall (T 0.5m; H 0.3m) which protrudes above the surface of the bog. The S portion of the interior is elevated (H 0.3m) to compensate for the hillslope. 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
