Hut site in Gortlahard (glanarought By., Cappagh Ed)

In rough hill pasture, on a S-facing slope, in the valley of Glashanaglaragh stream. The remains of an oval hut site (5.2m E-W; 3.4m N-S) defined by a collapsed drystone wall (T 0.6m; H 0.5m) which is best preserved N-SE. Rubble is scattered around the hut site both internally and externally. The N portion of the interior is cut slightly into the upslope and the S portion is raised slightly to compensate for the hillslope. Another hut site (KE103-029005-) is c. 30m to the SE. 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
