Recorded monuments

• KE042-139 Barrow - ring-barrow
  Description

  Uphill of KE042-147----, at a distance of about 200m, is a stony platform defined along its S side by a steep drop of c. 3m; it measures c. 11m E-W. Two trackways leading E from the site have disturbed it considerably and classification is uncertain. However it was described as being similar to KE042-138---- and KE042-147---- (local information). The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 255. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 4 August 2013

• KE042-147 Barrow - ring-barrow
  Description

  Located about 150m E of KE042-138----, this site consists of a bank and internal fosse enclosing a low central mound, with opposed entrances to E and W, the overall diameter being c. 18 to 19m. Stones have been quarried from the interior (local information) and the mound, once probably circular, now measures c. 7.4m N-S x 10m E-W. The fosse is shallow, varying in depth from .1 to .3m and in width from .5 to 1.5m. For a short stretch to S the bank is represented only by a scarp falling .75m to the exterior, but it reaches a maximum internal height of 1.15m immediately N of the E entrance. Along the N portion of the bank, for a distance of 8m, the external face, here .25m high, is revetted with low drystone walling. The entrance gaps measure 2.25m and 2m wide respectively. There are no clearly defined causeways across the fosse, but the recent disturbance could have obscured these features if they formerly existed. The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 252.
