What is recorded here

In the S sector of an enclosure (KE102-024001-). The remains of an oval hut site (2.8m N-S; 1.7m E-W) defined by a partially collapsed drystone wall (T 0.65m; H 0.6m) which is best preserved along the SE arc. The S portion of the interior is raised (H 0.3m) and the N portion is cut (D 0.2m) into the upslope to compensate for the hillslope. The interior is level. There is another hut site (KE103-024003-) c. 40m 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
