Sheepfold

In rough pasture, on the N-facing lower slopes of Beneen. The remains of a square hut site (2.4m E-W; 2.2m N-S) defined by a moss-covered, collapsed drystone wall (T 0.65m; H 0.85m) at W, N and E and by the smooth vertical face of outcropping rock at S. A break in the N wall may indicate an entrance. 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
