Circular enclosure KE021-104---- is situated SW of KE021-103----. It is marked on the 1841-42 and 1898 OS maps and shows up on the Geological Survey of Ireland's aerial photographs (1977).
According to the Kerry Field Notes (1945) the Club discovered a souterrain in the shape of the letter 'L' in the centre of the fort. The souterrain (KE021-104001-) was much collapsed and filled, being used as a burial place for animals. However, all that survives today is an undulating field which may signify the position of the original fort.
The above description is derived from C. Toal, ‘North Kerry Archaeological Survey’. Dingle. Brandon in association with FAS Training and Employment Authority (1995), no. 756. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
