Recorded monuments

• KE036-016 Ecclesiastical site
  Description

  The parish church (KE036-016001-) and graveyard (KE036-016002-) of Kilgobban/Cill Gobáin lie about 125m from the sea-shore on the S side of Tralee Bay. There is no visible trace of any Early Christian remains or of the parish church mentioned in the Papal Taxation List for the diocese of Ardfert, 1302-1307 (Cal Docs Ire, V, 295). In 1615, both the 'church and chancel' were 'well' (Royal Visitation) and the building was still in repair in 1756 (Smith, 70). This church was probably demolished when the present Church of Ireland edifice was erected at the site in 1824. An oval, limestone font (KE036-016003-) preserved within the church bears the inscription W COLLIS RECTOR 1729. The townland directly W of the site is named Tonakilly/Tón na Cille and the name Bunatemple/Bun an Teampaill is applied to a spot on the nearby sea-shore. The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 819.

• KE036-042 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  Internal diam. c. 26.5m. A circular univallate rath situated on a NNE facing slope, overlooking the entrance to Glenfais and the coastal plain that borders Tralee Bay. The earthen enclosing bank averages 1.1m and .2m in internal height on the upslope and downslope sides respectively. Externally it ranges in height from .35 to 1.3m, and it is 2.8m wide at base. The bank is densely overgrown but small-scale clearance of the vegetation revealed that at least some sections of the inner and outer faces are revetted with drystone masonry. The 3m wide entrance gap faces ESE. The only feature clearly visible in the interior is an L-shaped band of stones, 1.75m wide and .6m high; it is not known what this represents. Other piles of stone could not be closely inspected because of the dense vegetation. The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey.
