What is recorded here

'Infra red aerial photography (National Coastline Survey) indicates the presence of two possibly conjoined ditched features (KE029-303001-, KE029-303002-) in this area. No trace of the sites is visible on the ground. The features are orientated NW-SE with the slightly smaller example to the north-west. The larger example is circular with an approximate diameter of 18m. The smaller example is again circular with an approximate diameter of 15m. Both buried ditches clearly show as dark lines on the infra red photograph.' Description from ‘The Prehistoric Settlement of the Lee Valley, Tralee, Co.
