Fulacht fia

What is recorded here

In rough pasture, on a SW-facing slope, c. 15m W of a stream. A kidney-shaped heather-covered mound (11.5m NE-SW; 7.6m NW-SE; H 0.9m) of burnt material. The opening (3.2m NW-SE; 2.3m NE-SW) faces into a marshy area to the NW. An oval mound (4m NE-SW; 3.8m NW-SE; H 0.4m), separated from the main mound by a level area, may have originally formed the tip of the NW arm. 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
