According to McCarthy (1993, 16), the 'old Carew m.s.s. map' entitled 'Glanaroght in A.D. 1600' shows a church at Caher. On that map the townland is named 'Carregoran' and the church is shown as roofless. The precise location of this church is not known. McCarthy (ibid.) suggests that the church may have been in the vicinity of a holy well (KE093-122----), which also remains unlocated, in the same townland.
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.

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
The map shows the centre of the officially named townland area, not the monument. The government record does not identify the exact monument point.
