What is recorded here
On a sheltered terrace, on rough S-sloping pasture, overlooking the valley of the Sheen River. The remains of a roughly D-shaped hut site (5.3m E-W) defined by a collapsed drystone wall (T 0.6m; H 0.8m) with a straight W side (L 4m N-S) which is formed by a relict field boundary (KE093-057001-). Stone from the collapsed wall is strewn around the hut site internally and externally. Two other hut sites (KE093-057002-, KE093-057003-) are c. 130m to the W and c. 115m to the WSW, respectively.
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.
