Up to the mid-1970s four fulachta fiadh were visible along a 300m stretch of the W bank of the Gaddagh river. This marshy land was subsequently deep-ploughed, and no apparent trace of the sites survive. They were described locally as horseshoe-shaped mounds which were composed of burnt stone. During the levelling of one, a metal 'boat-shaped' object was discovered. The present provenance of this object is unknown. 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. 431.

This site was located on low-lying land a short distance W of the Gaddagh river. On the second edition of the OS map it is marked as a circular enclosure. The site was discernible until about twenty years ago (local information), but occasional flooding has apparently resulted in its erosion. The above description is derived from A. O'Sullivan and J.

Lismohillee/Lios na mBuachaillí(?) or Lios Mothaille: There is no visible trace of this monument which was located on slightly elevated ground overlooking the Gaddagh river, a short distance to W. It is marked on the first edition of the OS map as a circular enclosure, and is marked ‘site of’ on the second edition. The site does not appear to have been extant in living memory.

A circular enclosure is marked on the first edition of the OS map 30m SW of Killoughane Church (KE065-058001-). A faint cropmark, probably representing an infilled fosse, is all that survives to denote the site. It indicates an overall diameter of about 32m. The site was located in pilture on a low rise just E of the Gaddagh river. The above description is derived from A. O'Sullivan and J.

Killoughane Church/Cill Lócháin: This church is recorded in the Papal Taxation Lists of 1302-06, and it has been suggested by Ó Cíobháin that it was relegated in favour of nearly Knocknane Church at Churchtown (KE065-012001-) by the early fifteenth century (1985, lxx). Lewis noted that it was dependent on the Macgillycuddy tower house (KE065-059----) at nearby Dromloughane (1837, 237). The only apparent remains of the church is a short stretch of ivy-clad wall, located at the rear of a modern bungalow. Rubble-built and bonded with sandy mortar, it measures 3.5m long, 1.2m thick and 3m in maximum height. A rough corbel, 2.2m above present ground level, projects from the inner wall-face. The church is depicted on both editions of the OS map as a rectangular structure, aligned E-W. The surviving remains appear to represent a portion of its S side-wall. Digging at its N and E side in the 1970s revealed stone foundations, which were subsequently removed (local information). A children's burial ground (KE065-058002-), located on the S side of the church, was levelled in the 1920s (local information). 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. 1094.

Everytownland reads the registered freehold land and the statutory boundaries of Tailte Éireann, the national zoning, planning file and heritage records of the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage, and the Residential Property Price Register. A parcel is the land of a title, not an address. The owner's name is in the Land Registry of Tailte Éireann: a copy of the folio can be ordered on landdirect.ie, for a fee; this site names no owner. A price is the price recorded for a past sale, not a valuation.
