This poorly preserved univallate rath is located in good grazing land a short distance W of Tullynascally stream, and affords broad views over low-lying pastureland to E. It is noted as 'Lisin an Fhearainn' by Ó Cíobháin (1978, 52). The enclosing bank of earth and stone is densely overgrown and survives only as a low scarp along the W sector. At E it survives to a maximum height of 1.85m above external ground level and averages 2.1m in basal width and .85m in internal height. The interior of the site is featureless and the original entrance is not discernible. The above description is derived from A. O'Sullivan and J. Sheehan (compilers), 'The Iveragh peninsula: an archaeological survey of South Kerry'. Cork University Press (1996), no. 472. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.

This site, known locally as a cooking place, was levelled by ploughing around the 1960s. It consisted of a mound of shattered stone and was located in poor land, close to the W bank of Tullynascally stream. There is no longer any visible trace of the monument. A short distance to S, in an adjoining townland, two other such sites (KE065-035---- & KE065-036----) were also levelled at this time. The above description is derived from A. O'Sullivan and J. Sheehan (compilers), 'The Iveragh peninsula: an archaeological survey of South Kerry'. Cork University Press (1996), no. 406. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 28 July 2013 Works at or in relation to a recorded monument need two months' written notice to the National Monuments Service (National Monuments (Amendment) Act 1994, section 12). ## Architectural heritage (National Inventory of Architectural Heritage) No building of the National Inventory of Architectural Heritage stands in the townland of Brookhill. ## Ground and risks (Radon Risk Map of Ireland, EPA; Landslide Susceptibility Classification and LiDAR, Geological Survey Ireland) - Radon: at the centre of the townland of Brookhill, about 1 in 10 homes in this area is likely to have high radon levels.

A parcel is the land of a title, not an address. The owner's name is in the Land Registry of Tailte Éireann: a copy of the folio can be ordered on landdirect.ie, for a fee; this site names no owner. A price is the price recorded for a past sale, not a valuation.
