What is recorded here

Located immediately below the saddle that extends E from Eagles Hill, on its S side. Subcircular remains of a drystone hut KE099-028---- with some upright slabs revetting the inner wall-face. Adjacent at NW and possibly conjoined, a drystone hut (KE099-028001-) of subcircular plan, only one course high. Two slabs on edge, set 1.1m apart, denote an entrance at S. D: 2.5m x 1.7m. 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. 1286. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 1 August 2013
