What is recorded here

In rough pasture, on the E bank of a stream, on the S-facing slope of Mangerton Mountain. A D-shaped grass-covered mound (straight W side: 4m N-S; 2m E-W; H 0.7m) of burnt material. The burnt material is exposed in a small area on top of the mound and also along the W side by the stream. The NE end of a relict field boundary (KE084-057002-) lies c. 5m to the SW and a hut site (KE084-057001-) is located further to the SW. 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
