A well-built circular hut (KE070-001----), built into the gradient of the slope on the S side of Mount Foley, in land devoted to pasture. The drystone wall survives best along the inner wall-face at N, where it measures 1.8m high. Elsewhere it is .3m high, while at S it is no longer extant. D: 4.8m.
A souterrain (KE070-001001-) at this site, which is known locally as a 'fort', was filled in about forty years ago.
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. 1341. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
