What is recorded here

This example of rock art was destroyed in the late 1960s. It was located in a field on the NE slopes of Knockbrinnea mountain, overlooking the plain of the River Laune to N. According to local informants the decoration consisted only of cupmarks. The above description is derived from A. O'Sullivan and J. Sheehan (compilers), 'The Iveragh peninsula: an archaeological survey of South Kerry'. Cork University Press (1996), no. 352. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 28 July 2013

This remains an important historical record, but the official description says the monument is no longer visible or has been destroyed.

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
