What is recorded here

In rough hill pasture, on blanket bog, on a S-facing slope overlooking the valley of the Kealduff River and within a network of relict field boundaries (KE083-019002-). The remains of a circular hut site (diam. 5.3m) defined by the lower courses of a partially collapsed drystone wall (T 0.5m; H 0.8m) which protrudes above the surface of the bog. The wall is best preserved SW-NE. A semicircular arrangement of stones near the centre may be a later addition. 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
