• KE092-031001 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  Liss/Lios: This site was located on a natural rise in an area of marshy ground overlooking Kenmare Bay to S. On the first edition of the OS map it is shown as a circular enclosure, but on the second edition it is marked 'site of’. There is now no trace of the enclosure, referred to as a 'fort with a cave (KE092-031----) in it' in the OSNB (Templeno, 42). 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. 649.

• KE092-032 Enclosure
  Description

  An area of overgrowth marks the position of the circular enclosure and associated features which are marked at this location on the first edition of the OS map. The site survives a semicircular scarp, c. 2m high, present only along the W half. The enclosing bank has been removed and its outline is no longer discernible. A trackway runs N-S adjacent to the site at W. There is no surface trace of the very small enclosure (KE092-032003-) which was depicted on the OS map abutting the N side of the site, or of the two possible structures, indicated as circular outlines, which were located in the site's interior. 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. 788.

• KE092-032002 Kiln - lime
  Description

  This was formerly classed as 'well' in the SMR (1990) and the RMP (1997). The source of this information appears to be the 1846 OS 6-inch map where two circular features are depicted within the enclosure (KE092-032----). On closer inspection of the first edition (1846) OS 6-inch map, the feature at the SW appears to be the symbol used for a limekiln. This possible limekiln has been assigned this SMR number KE092-032003-. The second feature, located towards the centre of the enclosure appears to be a possible hut site and has been assigned this SMR record (KE092-032001-). According to the Iveragh Survey Peninsula entry (no. 788), there was no surface trace of either of these features.
