What is recorded here

In a coniferous wood, in a bog on the lower N-facing slopes of Beenduff. The remains of a roughly rectangular hut site (5.8m N-S; 2.8m E-W) defined by a heather-covered stone wall (T 0.7m; H 0.6m) which protrudes above the surface of a bog. The level interior is obscured by rushes and heather. There is another hut site (KE080-070002-) c. 2m to the N. The SW corner of an enclosure (KE080-070006-) is immediately to the N. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Kerry. Volume I: South-West Kerry' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 30 May 2011
