What is recorded here

Henry (1937, 276) recorded a calluragh burial ground near the last house of Faha village. It was 'devoid of any remains' but was still respected and left un-ploughed. It is not now remembered locally and its precise location has not been identified. An early ecclesiastical site, with cross-slabs, lies c. 450m to NE of the village (KE034-014003-). The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 898. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 7 August 2013

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.
