What is recorded here

Marked sheepfold on the OS maps, this site, along with a sheepfold in the neighbouring townland (KE080-047----), is situated within a forestry plantation and could not be located. Prior to afforestation, Henry described the rubble foundations of several round enclosures, possibly sheepfolds, and recorded the remains of old field boundaries nearby (1957, 82). The above description is derived from A. O'Sullivan and J. Sheehan (compilers), 'The Iveragh peninsula: an archaeological survey of South Kerry'. Cork University Press (1996), no. 1428. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 1 August 2013

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
