Hut site in Fehanagh

Hut site

What is recorded here

In rough hill pasture, on a N-facing slope, on the W bank of a tributary of the Glanrastel River. The remains of a circular hut site (diam. 2.2m) defined by a poorly preserved, drystone wall (T c. 0.5m; H 0.55m). Rough boulders in the lower courses protrude above the thin layer of blanket bog. A break in the wall at W may be the entrance location. This hut site is situated immediately NW of the junction of relict field boundaries (KE109-054001-) which abut the hut site at S and 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
