Recorded monuments

• KE080-005 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  Internal diam. 19.5m N-S, 12.5m E-W This circular univallate rath is located on a N facing slope with good views of Coonanna Harbour to NW and Valencia Harbour to W. A fosse, 1.5m deep below external ground level and 3m wide, is only apparent around the E sector of the site. The bank, composed of earth with a core of small stone, rises 2m above the fosse and falls 1.25m to the rath's interior. Overlain by a field boundary at NW, three breaks in the bank at NNE, SE and W appear to be secondary. The location of the original entrance is unclear. An oval-shaped structure (KE080-005001-) of stone occupies the centre of the rath's interior and rests on top of a low mound, 1m high. It features an entrance, .6m wide, at W, and has internal dimensions of 8.2m N-S and 4.2m E-W. Of relatively modern date, it may have been used as an animal pen. The mound on which it is constructed may be the remains of a hut site. 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. 548. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 29 July 2013

• KE080-065 Souterrain
  Description

  This souterrain, not marked on the OS maps, is located on a small rise in rough pasture about 70m SE of a rath (KE080-005----). Access is through a small opening, .6m x .25m, from which the passage appears to extend to NE. Its side-walls are built of horizontal courses of flat slabs and three lintels are visible. Infill blocks the passage, preventing access. The above description is derived from A. O'Sullivan and J. Sheehan (compilers), 'The Iveragh peninsula: an archaeological survey of South Kerry'.
