Internal diameter could not be taken
Situated on a rise, this site has a commanding view of the surrounding land. The enclosing bank has been completely levelled, except to the ENE through E to S where it has been completely reshaped and re-constructed of stone. There is a steep drop from this stone bank. Immediately to the NE is a quarry which has cut through this site slightly. In the interior of this possible rath is a sub- rectangular house-site (KE021-101003-), aligned NE-SW, measuring 16m x 14.6m internally. The house site is 4m wide. Extending out of the NE corner of this house-site is a rectangular structure, 12.6m x 7m internally. To the E and SE off the larger rectangular house-site are two mounds of stones (KE021-101002-).
The above description is derived from C. Toal, ‘North Kerry Archaeological Survey’. Dingle. Brandon in association with FAS Training and Employment Authority (1995), no. 761. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
