What is recorded here

Situated on the lower W slopes of Brandon mountain, circular cashel KE034-022---- contains the remains of at least 7 stone huts and a souterrain. (3) This hut lies towards the NW end of the internal dividing wall and only the portion incorporated into this latter survives. It stands 1.4m high internally and 1.15m externally. A lintelled recess at its inner end is.7m wide and .4m high above present ground level; it is now blocked by collapse. The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 538. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
