What is recorded here

The precise location of a possible burial mound in the townland of Knockanush West recorded in the Minute Book of County Kerry Field Club 03/02/1940 (Vol. 1, 80) has not been identified. The Kerry Field Club recorded that they were, 'met by Mr. McMahon of Knockanush West who showed them a small circled mound on his land. This site looks more like a burial than a fort. The west and east sides are raised much higher than the rest and the whole mound is composed of clay and stones'. Compiled by: Caimin O'Brien Date of upload: 14 June 2022

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.

The map shows the centre of the officially named townland area, not the monument. The government record does not identify the exact monument point.
