What is recorded here

In rough pasture, on a N-facing slope, overlooking the valley of the Glashagarriv stream. The remains of a circular hut site (diam. 1.4m) defined by a partially collapsed wall (T 0.8m; H 1.1m) consisting of stone and clay. The N portion of the interior is raised slightly to compensate for the hillslope. There is an entrance (Wth 0.7m) at N. Another hut site (KE102-004001-) lies c. 35m to the NNW. 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
