What is recorded here

In pasture, on the E-facing slope of Knockatee Mountain, to the N of the Bunaw-Drombohilly Lower road. A roughly circular depression (diam. 1.8m; D 0.25m), with two low upright stones (H 0.45m; 1.2m x 0.4m; on a NW-SE axis), marks the location of the entrance to this possible souterrain. According to local information, there was an entrance to an underground passage here but it was closed up a long time ago. 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
