Internal diameter 32.4m N-S, 37.6m E-W
This univallate ringfort lies one field NE of KE021-092----. It is situated towards the corner of the field and a fieldbank runs to the N and W. This ringfort consists of a sub-circular area which is enclosed by an earth and stone bank. This bank is only visible from the NE through E to S; elsewhere the bank has been levelled and now appears as a 1m rise above the surrounding land. The enclosing bank rises to 2.5m above the interior and 3.3m above the external ground level. A 3m wide gap leads to the interior, which is at a higher level than the surrounding land. On the E interior side of the enclosing bank is a semi-circular stone-lined area, and in front of the incurve is a small mound of stones. This feature could suggest a hut site (KE021-091001-).
The above description is derived from C. Toal, ‘North Kerry Archaeological Survey’. Dingle. Brandon in association with FAS Training and Employment Authority (1995), no. 743. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
