What is recorded here

In rough hill pasture, on a SW-facing slope, overlooking the valley of the Dromoghty River. This roughly circular cairn (4.4m NE-SW; 3.8m NW-SE; H 0.95m) of partially grass-covered stones protrudes above the surface of the shallow bog. Traces of kerbing were noted along its W and NE arcs. This is one of a group of nine cairns (see KE102-091003-, KE102-091004-, KE102-091005-, KE102-091006-, KE102-091007-, KE102-091008-, KE102-091010-, KE102-091011-), the closest of which (KE102-091010-) lies c. 12m to the E. 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
