In rough hill pasture, on the SE-facing slope of Mangerton Mountain and within a network of relict field boundaries (KE085-027002-). The remains of a circular hut site (2.4m E-W; 2.2m N-S) defined by a collapsed drystone wall (T 0.6m). The S portion of the interior is raised (H 0.1m) and the N portion is cut (D 0.5m) into the upslope to compensate for the hillslope. However, the interior still retains a gentle slope down to the S. Another hut site (KE085-027004-) is c. 22m to the NW.
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.
