An Dún: This unusual site is located in an exposed position about 350m E of the summit of Slieve-donagh/Sliabh an Dúna (937 feet/286m).
Two large circular clochauns (KE051-005002- & KE051-005003-) were formerly visible in the interior (Mason 1950, 103-4). The stone collapse and sections of ruined walling in the W sector of E platform may be the remains of other huts but could also indicate the locations of 1 or more hut-sites (KE051-005004-).
The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 1521. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
