This small, rectangular structure is marked ‘Sheepfold’ on the second edition of the OS map. It abuts the external face of the enclosing elements at NNW of enclosure (KE080-046001-), breaking its circuit at this point. Measuring 2.3m E-W x 1.5m N-S internally, its walls are built in random horizontal courses. Henry noted an entrance in its external side-wall (1957, 77), but this is no longer apparent.
The above description is derived from O'Sullivan, A. and Sheehan, J. (compilers) 'The Iveragh peninsula: an archaeological survey of South Kerry'. Cork University press. (1996), no. 959. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
