Hut site in Uragh

Hut site

What is recorded here

In rough hill pasture, on an E-facing slope overlooking Lough Inchiquin and abutting the external face of the SE arc of an enclosure (KE101-06601-). The remains of a D-shaped hut site (3.7m NW-SE) defined by a collapsed drystone wall (T 0.5m) with a straight NW side (L 2m NE-SW). The E portion of the interior is raised (H 0.2m) and the SW side is cut (D 0.6m) into the upslope to compensate for the hillslope. An adjoining hut site (KE101-066007-) lies immediately to the NE. 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
