What is recorded here

In rough hill pasture, on a S-facing slope, overlooking the valley of the Glantrasna River. The remains of a curvilinear stone wall (T 0.6m; H 0.3m) protrude above the surface of the bog and extend to the E across the hillslope for c. 118m. Another wall (L c. 154m) branches off upslope to NE and then to WNW. The main wall continues to the E for c. 60m and runs on into bog. Several gaps were noted in the walls. Rubble is scattered downslope. There is a cairn (KE109-001008-) to the N of the main wall. 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
