What is recorded here

In rough hill pasture, on a steep NW-facing slope, broken by outcropping rock. The remains of a circular hut site (diam. 2.8m) defined by a grass-covered, collapsed, drystone wall (T 0.6m; H 0.2m) which protrudes above the surface of the bog. The NW portion of the interior is raised (H 0.6m) and the SE portion is cut (D 0.3m) into the upslope to compensate for the hillslope. 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
