What is recorded here

In rough hill pasture, on the S-facing slope of Mangerton Mountain, overlooking the valley of the Owbeg River. The remains of a circular hut site (diam. 2.6m) defined by a collapsed drystone wall (T 0.6m; H 0.3m). The S portion of the interior is raised to compensate for the hillslope. However, the heather-clad interior still retains a gentle slope down to the S. There are loose stones scattered on the downslope externally. Another hut site (KE084-040002-) adjoins this hut site to the NW. Conjoined hut sites (KE084-040003-, KE084-040007-) are 24m to the SW. 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
