What is recorded here

In the SE sector of an enclosure (KE108-055004-). The remains of a circular hut site (diam. 3m) defined by the lower courses of a drystone wall (T c. 0.7m; H 0.2-0.6m). The partly grass-covered slabs in the lower course, some of which are set upright, protrude above the bog. The N portion of the interior is cut (D 0.3m) into the upslope and the S portion is built up (H 0.3m) externally. Another hut site (KE108-055006-) is 10m 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
