Calluragh burial ground (KE043-190002-): Situated on the SSW slopes of Croaghskearda, overlooking the broad expanse of low-lying land that surrounds Trabeg, this site consists of a large circular enclosure, in use until the 19th century as a calluragh burial ground (OSNB Cloghane, book 2, 14).
The bullaun (KE043-190004-) is set into the ground beside the pillar stone. It is an irregularly-shaped stone, .53m x .34m, with an oval depression measuring .28m x .23m x .12m in depth. A crack or hole at the base of the depression has been filled in with concrete.
The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 867. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
