What is recorded here

In rough hill pasture, on an E-facing slope, overlooking the valley of the Feabunaun stream. The remains of a rectangular hut site (4.6m NW-SE; 3.5m NE-SW) defined by a partially collapsed, drystone wall (T 0.6m; H 1.4m). The wall at SW is incorporated into a field boundary. There is a collapsed entrance at the centre of the SE wall. Rubble is scattered in the interior. This hut site is adjoined by two enclosures (KE102-026001-, KE102-026002-) at NW and at SE. 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
