What is recorded here

In rough pasture, on the lower NW-facing slopes of Derryclancy Mountain. The remains of a rectangular hut site (4.65m N-S; 2.3m E-W) defined by a grass-covered earth and stone wall (T c. 0.6m; H 0.3-0.7m). The interior is obscured by ferns. There is an entrance (Wth 0.5m) in the E wall and a break in the W wall. The hut site is cut (D 0.1-0.4m) into the upslope NE-S. There is another hut site (KE111-008002-) 16m to the SE. 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
