Hut site

What is recorded here

In rough hill pasture, on a steep N-facing slope, overlooking a river valley. The remains of a D-shaped hut site (1.8m N-S) defined by a partially collapsed drystone wall (T 0.5m; H 1.4m) with a straight S side (L 2.5m E-W). A boulder is incorporated into the wall at SW. The level interior is cut into the upslope at S and is strewn with rubble. There is an entrance (Wth 0.4m) at E. 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
