Recorded monuments

• KE053-022 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  Listonavally/Lios Tón an Bhaile: This circular univallate enclosure, c. 26m in diameter, is defined partly by a very low bank, partly by a low scarp, the interior being raised up to 1.5m above the external ground level, and partly by a modern field wall which preserves the line of the original bank. There is reputed to be a souterrain here, possibly that described in the OSL as consisting of several chambers and passages and as being located within a circular hut foundation in a destroyed rath. The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 614.

• KE053-023 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  Estimated diam. 48m This site was marked as a circular univallate enclosure on the 1st edition of the OS map. By 1896 the W half had been destroyed (2nd edition of OS map), and the bank around the E half is now only faintly discernible. There are slight traces of a possible fosse. The S part of the interior has been bisected E-W by a field wall. Low mounds occur on either side of this and on the S side is a depression measuring c. 8m in diameter and .6m in depth. The latter may mark the location of a hut site or possibly a souterrain. The site lies on a SE facing slope about 125m E of KE053-022----. The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 615.
