What is recorded here

In rough hill pasture, on the S-facing slopes of Barrerneen and within a network of relict field boundaries (KE103-017003-). The remains of an oval hut site (3.2m N-S; 2m E-W) defined by a grass-covered drystone wall (T 0.5m; H 0.4m) which is best preserved SW-SE. A break at S may indicate an entrance. One of the relict field walls is c. 5m to the N. There is another hut site (KE103-017004-) c. 7m to the W. 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
