Two adjoining univallate raths are located in sloping pastureland on the edge of an old meander scarp of the Ferta river, which flows to S. A small stream runs between the two sites and the enclosing elements on both sides of this are somewhat eroded. A field wall overlies and obscures the S sector of the bank of the rath at W. H
Ua Riain noted a ‘smaller circle’ (KE070-049001-) in it, located close to the bank at W and measuring 19 feet (5.8m) in diameter (1927).
He also recorded an inaccessible souterrain (KE070-049002-) located on the E side of this probable hut site. Neither feature can now be identified.
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. 501. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
