• KE043-060 Ringfort - cashel
  Description

  Internal diam. c. 26 to 28m This site is located on the lower W slopes of Ballysitteragh mountain, overlooking the broad level plain through which the Milltown river flows S towards Dingle Harbour. It is bisected by the townland boundary wall, and the S half of the roughly circular enclosure is virtually destroyed, while the N half is only poorly preserved. The remains of the S half consist of a slightly raised platform covered with large boulders cleared from the adjacent field. The N half is enclosed by an irregular stony bank, a maximum of .7m high and c. 2.3m wide. That the site is a cashel and not a rath is suggested by the stony nature of the enclosing bank and by the fact that it is named 'Caher' on the Fair Plan. A slight circular hollow, c. 4.2m in diameter, marks the site of the clochaun marked on the OS maps. The townland boundary wall curves around the NW half of this feature and probably follows the line of the original wall of the hut. It may also incorporate part of the latter as its lower courses are distinctly different from the upper courses, being neater in construction and comprised of smaller stones. The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 572.

• KE043-076001 Ritual site - holy well
  Description

  Tobermolag/Tobar Mhealaicí [Malachy]: A spring issuing from under a large boulder. A channel in the upper surface of a concrete slab receives the water and concentrates its flow before it spills into a small, stone-lined pool. A stone which stood above the well bore a plain inscribed cross (Curran no. 64) and there was also reputedly a stone at the well which bore indecipherable writing (Ó Danachair 1960, 73). Described by Ó Danachair (1960, 73) as; ‘"Tobermolag" on 1842 map; "Tobar Meailici" - local. An Seabhac suggests "Tobar Malac ". A strong spring, now invisible under a thicket of fuchsia. Rounds were made formerly but not within the present century. The well cured pains and aches. Legend : A white trout with red spots and a white eel live in the well; these were seen by persons about to be cured. A stone at the well has upon it writing which no one can read'. Folklore collected from Glin South School recorded the following tradition; 'The name of St. Malachy's Well. It is in the land of Mícheál Mac Síthigh, in a field called Clochán na Ceárdthain. This field is up to three miles northwest of Daingean Uí Chúise, in Dingle Peninsula. A relatively large tree grows at the head of the well. and there is a slab standing next to it and there is writing on it. No one can figure out what is written on. People used to take a turasthere a long time ago but no one took the turas there today. It's probably been twenty years since anyone took the turas there. The turas was done for a headache. There was a small white trout with red spots on it. There were eels in the well and and they were white. They were about six inches long. They would never get out of the well. When the person was doing the turas if they had a chance to see the trout and the eel together. The trout and the eel have now disappeared and no one knows how they escaped. People came from all over taking the turas. The well never dried up and no one could empty it. The water is cold in the summer and very nice to drink' (The Schools’ Collection, Volume 0421, Page 445-7; https://www.duchas.ie/en/cbes/4678393/4676039). The above description is derived from J.
