Cashel KE026-020---- containing traces of 2 or possibly 3 huts and a now inaccessible souterrain. It crowns a local eminence (58 feet/18m OD) about 200m from Caher Point on the W side of Brandon Bay.
In the WNW sector of the interior a band of grass-grown collapse outlines the site of a hut and there is a faint suggestion of a 2nd hut immediately to SW. A very disturbed, sub-circular spread of stones, immediately SE of the centre of the enclosure, may mark the site of a 3rd hut but can equally well be interpreted as clearance debris.
The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 548. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
