What is recorded here

In rough hill pasture, on blanket bog, on the NE-facing slopes of Knocknagullion and within a network of relict field boundaries (KE091-114009-). A horseshoe-shaped grass-covered mound (19m NW-SE; 12.1m NE-SW; H 1.9m) of burnt material protrudes above the surface of the bog. The opening (5.6m NW-SE; 5.6m NE-SW) faces a wet area to the SW. There is an enclosure (KE091-104----) c. 100m to the NW, a standing stone (KE091-114002-) c. 120m to the SW and a hut site (KE091-114004-) c. 70m to the ENE. 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
