What is recorded here

In mainly cutaway bog, on an E-facing slope overlooking the valley of the Dromoghty River. The remains of a curvilinear field wall (T 0.8m; H 0.5m) protrude intermittently above the surface of shallow uncut bog and run in a general N direction for c. 45m. The wall decreases in height (H 0.2m) towards the N end and then runs on into deeper bog. There is a cairn (KE101-082005-) near the S end of the wall. 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
