Situated c 90m E of the above sub-rectangular enclosure (KE009-092----) is a blowhole called Poultarrif (Poll an Tairbh - hole of the bull) (OSNB, 264). It is subcircular, being about 23m N-S and c 14.6m E-W. Running down the side of this blowhole are drill runs, and they are evident all around the side. Quite possibly this was also a lead mine, which was worked until the natural work of the blowhole made the mine collapse; it may be connected to the next site.
The above description is derived from C. Toal, ‘North Kerry Archaeological Survey’. Dingle. Brandon in association with FAS Training and Employment Authority (1995), no. 1111. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
