Recorded monuments

• KE042-143 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  Very little remains of this univallate ringfort situated on the lower E slopes of Lateevemore. On an aerial photograph taken in 1949 (Ministry of Defence, V. 158/100), the site appears as a circular enclosure with a single bank and fosse. However, it was for the most part destroyed during recent removal of adjacent field fences. All that remains is a roughly circular raised area, c. 47m in diameter and no more than .3m high. The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 640. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 7 August 2013

• KE042-144 Ritual site - holy well
  Description

  Toberahoonanara/Tobar an Chapaill: This well is located immediately SW of Caherboshina village, at the foot of the E slopes of Lateevemore. It is now used as a water source for domestic or farmyard purposes and is provided with a rough, concrete surround. However, there is a vague tradition of former devotions (Ó Danachair 1960, 77).

• KE042-145 Enclosure
  Description

  On the 1st edition of the OS map, this site is shown as a circular univallate enclosure. On the 2nd edition it is depicted as a mound, located in the N corner of a field, its N half defined by irregularly curving field fences. Its present condition is virtually the same as shown on the latter map. The mound is densely overgrown and is composed mainly of earth with some small stones. It measures c. 26m E-W and is raised an average of 1.5m above the surrounding ground level. A possible fosse skirts the base of the S half of the mound. This is marked by a 2m wide band of reeds and by a slight depression, a few cms deep. The site lies near the foot of the E slopes of Lateevemore, at the W side of the broad valley through which the Milltown river flows S to Dingle Harbour. The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 641.
