This large sub-circular enclosure is cut into two unequal parts by OS 6-inch sheets 14 and 20, and would appear to cover an area of over 29 acres. According to local tradition, a church (KE020-077----) once lay within this enclosure. In the enclosure is an 'old graveyard' which is marked on the 1841-42 OS 6-inch map for Sheet 20, but does not appear on the later edition of 1897. A souterrain containing a skeleton was discovered and excavated in 1987 (Cahill, 1988).
The above description is derived from C. Toal, ‘North Kerry Archaeological Survey’. Dingle. Brandon in association with FAS Training and Employment Authority (1995), no. 836. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
