Recorded monuments

• KE088-007 Hut site
  Description

  In rough pasture on a N facing slope, overlooking Portmagee Channel. A roughly rectangular drystone hut with a sod-covered external wall-face. Two prostrate slabs define a .6m wide entrance. Two adjacent, lintelled wall chambers are located in the interior at W. They average 2.5m long, .5m high and .75m wide. 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. 1185. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 31 July 2013

• KE088-023 Souterrain
  Description

  A platform, 11.5m square, is located on the N facing slope of Knocknaskereighta, overlooking Portmagee Channel to N. It rises 1.65m above ground level on its N side, where the blocked entrance to a drystone-built souterrain, not marked on the OS maps, occurs. A second opening is located at the S side of the platform, through which access is gained to a 2.5m long, E-W passage, .9m high and 1.15m wide. Midway along its N side-wall is a lintelled creepway, .55m x .55m, which leads into a passage that extends to N. Collapse prevented access beyond this point, but the blocked presence of the ope at the N side of the platform may indicate that the second passage is up to 9m long. The walls of both passages are carefully constructed with regularly coursed, flat slabs and are capped with large lintels. 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. 856.
