Shrine in Aghatubrid, County Kerry

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

What is recorded here

A slab bearing a circular perforation, .03m in diameter, lies on the surface of the leacht, while another, with a .09m wide circular perforation, lies just outside its SE corner. These slabs may derive from a gable-shrine, like the example on the leacht at nearby Killoluaig (KE088-010002-). Cork University Press (1996), no. 922.

From the National Monuments Service (Archaeological Survey of Ireland) record KE088-015009
