What is recorded here
Bivallate rath KE034-109----, enclosing 2 stone huts, is situated on the N facing slopes of Reenconnell overlooking the marshy, low-lying plain drained by the Feohanagh river and its tributaries.
In the SE part of the interior are the ruined remains of a stone hut (KE034-109001-) measuring c. 4.3m N-S and 3.2m E-W internally. The wall survives to a maximum height of .77m internally and is c. 1.5m wide. There is no clear evidence for an entrance but it must have been located in the ruined N or W sectors.
The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 378. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
