National Monument No. 380. About 20m from the W shore of Lough Currane in rough pasture. An overgrown circular hut KE098-108---- with some large blocks incorporated into its drystone construction. An opening, 1.1m x .85m, in its interior leads into a drystone-built souterrain passage which extends towards SW. The upper courses of the inaccessible passage corbel slightly toward its lintelled roof. D: 5.1m x 5m. H: 1.2m. T: 2.7m. The above description is derived from A. O'Sullivan and J. Sheehan (compilers), 'The Iveragh peninsula: an archaeological survey of South Kerry'. Cork University Press (1996), no. 1128. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 31 July 2013
