In level pasture, on the E side of the valley of the Slaheny River. In the 1930s Capt. D. B. O'Connell noted 'a large oval flag-stone which rests on a low pile of stones' in a field to the SW of an ogham stone (KE094-018001-) and another possible burial site (KE094-018002-) (KAS). O'Connell interpreted this as a grave site. The precise location of this possible burial is not known but there are no visible remains of it in the field to the SW of the ogham stone.
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.

This remains an important historical record, but the official description says the monument is no longer visible or has been destroyed.
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.
