What is recorded here

In rough hill pasture, on the E bank of a meandering river. A horseshoe-shaped mound (13.1m N-S; 8.5m E-W; H 1.5m) of burnt material, with steeply sloping sides. The opening (Wth 1.4m) faces W towards the river. The tip of the NW arm is being eroded by the river and burnt material is exposed here and also on the E edge of the mound. 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
