What is recorded here

In a rath (KE093-003----). A large slab near the centre of the rath and another 6m to the W, are said to cover the entrance to the souterrain and part of the collapsed passage, respectively. According to local information, this souterrain was accessed via stone steps and had clay walls and a slab-built roof. 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
