• KE060-001 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  In pasture, on a W-facing slope. A short stretch of a curving bank, abutting the S side of an E-W field boundary, may be part of the E arc of this possible rath. The possible rath is visible in an aerial photograph (GSIAP, W 142-3), taken in 1973, as the faint cropmark of a fosse. This cropmark encloses a roughly circular area (diam. c. 60m), the N portion of which is crossed by an E-W field boundary.

• KE060-002 Fulacht fia
  Description

  In pasture, on a S-facing slope. There are no visible remains of this fulacht fia. A report dating to 1980 describes a conical mound (diam. 12m; H 1.2m) situated on the downhill side of, and c. 4m away from, a well in marshy land (SMR file). The report also noted that burnt material was exposed in the edge of a field boundary, a few metres W of the well (ibid.). This is probably one of two fulachtaí fia (see KE060-076----) recorded in the 1940s in William Daly's land and which measured '50ft [15.24m] in diameter and 10 feet [3.05m] high' with a hollow in the centre, measuring '9 feet [2.74m] x 3 [feet] [0.91m]' (Schools Manuscript, Co. Kerry). Compiled by: Elizabeth Byrne, Ursula Egan and Sheila Ronan, Archaeological Survey Unit, University College, Cork. Date of upload: 31 January 2011

• KE060-039 Fulacht fia
  Description

  In rough pasture, on a S-facing slope. A crescent-shaped grass-covered mound (10m NW-SE; 7m NE-SW; H 1m) of burnt material with the opening (4.5m NW-SE; 2.5m NE-SW) facing SW. The mound is partly obscured by long grass. This is probably one of two fulachtaí fia (see KE060-078----) recorded in the 1940s in Patrick Kelleher's land (Schools Manuscript, Co. Kerry).

• KE060-079 Fulacht fia
  Description

  In pasture, at the foot of a S-facing slope, which borders an overgrown level marshy area. According to local information, a mound was levelled here in the 1980s. The fulacht fia is not visible at ground level. This is the fulacht fia recorded in the 1940s in Patrick Brosnan's land (Schools Manuscript, Co. Kerry).
