• KE090-008 Field system
  Description

  This complex of pre-bog walls is located high on the S slopes of Knocknagantee, on the SE side of Eagles Lough. The mountainous terrain is covered in a thin mantle of peat and the walls occupy an area measuring about 600m N-S x 380m E-W. One wall at the S end of the complex runs E-W for 15m, while further N, a long, curvilinear stretch almost encircles a low knoll; both walls are composed of large boulder-like slabs, most of which are set upright. A third wall, to NE of the second, curves gently in a semicircle for a distance of 140m. Two adjoining walls extend up the mountain slope for several hundred metres; these are composed of flat slabs, small boulders and some uprights. A modern E-W field boundary crosses these walls. A number of fionnán enclosures occur in the complex. The above description is derived from A. O'Sullivan and J. Sheehan (compilers), 'The Iveragh peninsula: an archaeological survey of South Kerry'.

• KE090-011003 Field boundary
  Description

  This pre-bog complex is located on a triangular shelf of peat-covered land, on the S side of Knocknagantee. A number of walls, both linear and curvilinear, run approxiately N-S. They are composed of boulders and upright slabs and average 1m high and .6m wide. One wall disappears beneath the peat at its S end, but it can be traced for a further 100m. Towards the W side of the complex, a 200m stretch of wall, its midsection overlain by peat, runs in a gentle arc. Running at right angles between these two is a 20m stretch of wall which joins a third, meandering, intermittent N-S wall. Six circular enclosures, crudely built and surviving only to two courses high, are found scattered throughout the complex. They range from 3m to 10m in internal diameter and may be related to the walls. Some more recent sheepfolds also occur in the vicinity of the site. 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. 39.
