It was situated on the lower W slopes of Reenconnell and commanded an extensive view across Smerwick Harbour as far as Inishtooskert. The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 653.

• KE042-016 Enclosure
  Description

  Internal diam. c. 25m Lisgortnacaheragh/Lios Gort na Rátha: This site was shown on the OS maps as a univallate enclosure with a clochaun (KE042-016001-) located in the E sector of the interior. It has been almost completely levelled and a field fence now bisects it N-S. The outline of the enclosing bank or wall is vaguely discernible but the remains are generally no more than .2m high. There is no trace of the clochaun which was described as standing to a height of 1 foot (.3m) in 1845 (OSM). The site is located on the W slopes of Reenconnell overlooking Smerwick Harbour. The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 652.

• KE042-017 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  Internal diam. 18m Situated on the lower SW slopes of Reenconnell, this site was not noted on the OS maps. It consists of a circular univallate ringfort, within which are the remains of 2 conjoined huts. An E-W laneway, c. 2m wide, cuts across the N sector of the fort but its N wall preserves the line of the original enclosure. Elsewhere the fort is defined by a low, grass-grown bank which contains some stone. The bank is a maximum of 1.3m high externally, .3m high internally and is 1.5 to 2.4m wide. The 2 roughly circular huts are located against the S side of the lane. The W hut measures c. 5.3m N-S x 4m internally. It is defined to S by a grass-grown stony bank, .6 to 1m high. To N it is defined by the lane wall, 1.7m high and .8m wide, which curves outwards here and was probably built on the line of the wall of the hut. There are breaks in the bank at W and S and a 1.4m wide gap at E leads into the 2nd hut. The E hut is 3.9m in diameter internally. Its wall is also reduced to a stony bank, .2 to .7m high, except to N where the lane wall again curves outwards. There is a wide gap in the bank at SE. The above description is derived from J. Cuppage (compiler) 'Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey.' Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne (1986), no. 361.
