Hut site in An Fearann (tc Cé Bhréanainn)

Hut site

What is recorded here

An Fearann holds a univallate rath with three or possibly four stone huts inside its banks. The fourth may have pressed against the third, leaving behind a short arc of walling only one course high. That fragment suggests a circular room now lost to time, while the others still stand as quiet witnesses to domestic life in County Kerry.
Univallate rath KE026-010---- with 3 or possibly 4 stone huts in the interior. (4) (KE026-010004-) A 4th hut may have abutted the SE side of hut (KE026-010003-). This is suggested by a short arc of walling, only 1.75m long and a single course high, which may mark the inner wall face of a circular structure. The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 412. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 7 August 2013
