In rough pasture, on an E-facing slope, overlooking the valley of Cloonee and Inchiquin Lakes. A D-shaped mound (straight SW side: 6.4m NW-SE; 6.6m NE-SW; H 0.55m) of burnt material, partially obscured by gorse bushes. The fulacht fia abuts the outer face of the axial stone of a multiple-stone circle (KE101-025001-). Three boulder-burials (KE101-025003-, KE101-025005-, KE101-025006-) lie 5m to the SW. 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
