What is recorded here

In rough hill pasture, on an E-facing slope, overlooking the valley of the Dromoghty River. A D-shaped area (4.1m N-S) defined by a collapsed drystone wall (T 0.7m; H 0.7m) and by a straight N side (L 4.9m) formed by outcropping rock. The drystone wall protrudes above the surface of the bog and narrows as it rises. There is a scatter of loose stones in the NW portion of the interior and around the enclosure externally. There is another enclosure (KE101-092005-) c. 12m to the SSW. 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
