Description
In rough pasture, on a S-facing slope, overlooking the valley of the Roughty River. A circular area (24.7m N-S; 24m E-W) defined by a drystone wall (T 1.5m; max. H 1.5m). The upper courses of the wall have been rebuilt and are narrower than the lower ones. The rebuilding has obscured the original entrance, though there are cattle-breaks (Wth c. 1m) at E, S and SW. The interior is overgrown and slopes gently down to the S. There are loose stones scattered around the cashel wall, both internally and externally. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Kerry. Volume I: South-West Kerry' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 30 May 2011
