What is recorded here

In rough pasture, on the break of a S-facing slope, overlooking the valley of the Roughty River.

Loose stones are scattered within the interior and around the hut site externally. 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
