Description
Internal diam. 27.9m N-S, 26.6m E-W A roughly circular univallate rath situated on the SW slopes of a low ridge (483 feet/147m) which borders Brandon Bay to E of the estuary of the Scorid and Glennahoo rivers. The site commands an excellent view in all directions except to NNE where the rising hillslope restricts the outlook. The single earthen bank which encloses the site ranges from .3 to 1.1m in height internally and averages 2.25m in height externally; it is 4m wide at base. A modern drainage ditch skirts the outer edge of the bank to N and E. The entrance gap to SSW rises steeply to the interior; it is 1.6m wide and its E side is lined by 2 large stones set on edge. The interior is occupied by a series of cultivation ridges and a cairn of clearance stones. The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 529. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 7 August 2013
