What is recorded here

The second enclosure (KE071-051----) occurs just S of a stream, c. 650m SE of the first. It survives as a subcircular area, averaging 7m in internal diameter, enclosed by a low bank of earth and boulders. A low stone feature of circular plan occurs within the enclosure and may have functioned as a turf-drying platform. 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. 29. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 28 July 2013
