- KE072-012001: Children's burial ground, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CKE072-012001-. Killeennamoyla Burial Ground/Cillín na Maoile: This site is located in poorly drained land on the floor of the Bridia valley. It comprises an enclosure of approximately circular plan which is defined by a bank and external fosse. The enclosed area measures 35.5m N-S x 35.7m E-W. The construction of a modern stone wall at W has resulted in the partial infilling of the fosse here; elsewhere it survives up to .75m deep and 3.15m wide. The largely overgrown bank rises 1m from the base of the fosse, and falls an average of .5m to the interior of the site. There is a 2.2m wide entrance gap in the bank at N, on either side of which rough stone facing is preserved externally for c. 4.5m. The interior of the site is largely overgrown and slopes slightly up towards N. Located in a rather stony area at E is a small cairn, .7m high and 3m in diameter, and a low stretch of wall. This runs NE-SW and measures 6m long and .9m wide. A number of small uninscribed upright slabs also occur in this quadrant. 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. 1037. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 30 July 2013

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.
