Tomb in Ankail

This record was formerly classed as a 'tomb' in the SMR (1990) and the RMP (1997). However, there is no reference to this tomb in the Iveragh Peninsula Survey entry (For descriptive account see O'Sullivan and Sheehan 1996, 252, no. 924). The tomb is named on the 1895-6 OS 6-inch map. A field report in the SMR file describes the tomb as follows: 'abutting the bank at SE is a stone built tomb which contains no dates. It is drystone built aligned E-W on its long axis and is very overgrown and contains some skeletons. No date could be found on it.' It is likely to date to the post-1700 AD period.
