What is recorded here
Access to this possible ecclesiastical enclosure was not gained. It was indicated on the 1846 OS 6-inch map as an oval area (c. 85m E-W; c. 55m N-S) defined by a broken line and with a N-S field boundary crossing its E half, a townland boundary and a small stream crossing its W half and a rectangular burial ground (KE101-026002-) in its NE quadrant. Only the burial ground is indicated on the 1895-7 OS 6-inch map. The cropmark of the levelled bank of the enclosure is visible E-W in an aerial photograph (GSIAP, V 49-50) taken in 1973. The burial ground, covered with overgrowth, is also visible in the aerial photograph.
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.
