Field boundary in Shronebirrane

In rough hill pasture, to the S of a tributary of the Drimminboy River, on a NE-facing slope of Tooth Mountain. The remains of a relict field wall (T c. 0.6m; H 0.45m) meanders to the S for a distance of c. 300m. Midway along its length another wall branches off to the W and then curves to the S. The lower course stones of the walls protrude above the blanket bog. The poorly preserved walls are not continuous and veer off in several directions. There are two hut sites (KE108-055010-, KE108-055011---) and an enclosure (KE108-055012-) within this network of field walls. 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
