Hut site in Drombohilly Lower

In rough hill pasture, on a break in a NW-facing slope, overlooking Kenmare Bay. The remains of a D-shaped hut site (3.2m NW-SE) defined by a partially grass-covered, collapsed, drystone wall (T 0.7m; H 0.7m) with a straight NW side (L 4.5m NE-SW). The SE portion of the interior is cut into the upslope to compensate for the hillslope. The interior is level and is covered with rubble. Another hut site (KE109-001002-) is c. 25m to the SW. 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
