What is recorded here

Lisrananoge/Lios Ráth na nÓg: Circular univallate rath KE045-037---- is located on a fairly steep SE facing slope overlooking the valley of the Emlagh river. The N part of the interior appears to be slightly raised. Three depressions of unknown origin and a circular hut-site are located on this platform. The hut measures 4.3m N-S x 5m E-W internally and the wall is reduced to a bank of earth and stone, 1.5m wide and up to .85m high. The entrance faces NE and consists of a 1.2m wide break in the bank. The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 502. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 7 August 2013
