• KE036-026 Standing stone
  Description

  A large irregularly-shaped standing stone situated on level pastureland which falls away towards the Meennascarty river c. 75m to S. It stands 2.4m high and averages 1.25m in width and 1.15m in thickness at base; ESE-WNW. The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 101. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 4 August 2013

• KE036-027001 Children's burial ground
  Description

  Kilcumlaghta/Cill Cumnachta: This site lies on fairly level ground about 100m from the SE bank of the Meennascarty river, at the entrance to Gleann Locha. It consists of an oval stone-walled enclosure within which are the foundations of a church and also numerous gravemarkers which relate to the use of the site as a calluragh burial ground (KE036-027001-). A bullaun stone now lies directly outside the enclosure, a probable porthole-slab from a souterrain lies loose within the site and a fragment of a rotary quernstone was noted at the site in 1945 (CKFC). The calluragh graves are marked by numerous low upright stones which range from a couple of cms to .6m in height and which are generally aligned N-S. The Co. Kerry Field Club noted that many of the graves were square box-like structures covered by mounds of stones but only 1 possible box-like arrangement of stones is now discernible. The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 834.

• KE036-027002 Ecclesiastical enclosure
  Description

  Kilcumlaghta/Cill Cumnachta: This site lies on fairly level ground about 100m from the SE bank of the Meennascarty river, at the entrance to Gleann Locha. It consists of an oval stone-walled enclosure within which are the foundations of a church and also numerous gravemarkers which relate to the use of the site as a calluragh burial ground (KE036-027001-). A bullaun stone now lies directly outside the enclosure, a probable porthole-slab from a souterrain lies loose within the site and a fragment of a rotary quernstone was noted at the site in 1945 (CKFC). The enclosure measures 44m N-S x 37m E-W internally and the enclosing wall, of rough drystone construction, stands to a maximum height of 1.2m and averages .78m in thickness. The entire surface of the interior is strewn with loose stones, with a particularly dense concentration towards the centre, and the site is further confused by the large number of trees that grow within and around it. The calluragh graves are marked by numerous low upright stones which range from a couple of cms to .6m in height and which are generally aligned N-S. The Co. Kerry Field Club noted that many of the graves were square box-like structures covered by mounds of stones but only 1 possible box-like arrangement of stones is now discernible. No souterrain (KE036-027005-) has been discovered at the site but the presence of a probable porthole slab suggests that one existed. The stone is a thin rectangular slab out of one side of which a rectangular hole, .33m wide and .18m high, has been cut. The bullaun (KE036-027004-) consists of a sandstone boulder measuring .54m x .44m x . 15m deep, in whose upper surface a circular depression, .28m in diameter and .07m deep, has been carved. A small part of the bullaun has broken away and is now missing. Church (KE036-027003-): In the N sector of the interior are the foundations of a rubble-built rectangular church, 3.15m x at least 10.8m internally. The N, S and E walls, defaced externally, are preserved to a maximum height of .46m, but the W wall does not survive. A slab set on edge across the width of the wall, c. midway along the N side, may mark the location of an entrance. The head of a round-headed window, .46m wide, was discovered to the N of the church. A local tradition, associating the site with the Dominicans, was recorded by An Seabhac (1939, 278) who suggested that the 13th century church of Baliederscolle (987) may have been located here. This latter is included in the Papal Taxation list (1302-7) for the Deanery of Offerba (Cal Docs Ire, V, 295) but its exact location is not now known. The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 834.

• KE036-028 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  Internal diam. c. 28m A univallate rath enclosing a well-preserved souterrain and traces of a stone hut. It is situated on fairly level ground with good open views in all directions. To N the land slopes gradually NE to Tralee Bay. Both the circular interior and the earthen enclosing bank are densely overgrown. The bank rises only very slightly above the interior but it is a maximum of 1.75m high externally. It is surrounded by a fosse which for the most part is barely perceptible. However, from S to NE, a field boundary runs along its outer edge, and in this sector it is c. 0.35 to .4m deep below the external ground level. No definite entrance is visible. The Co. Kerry Field Club (1945, 647) noted the outline of a circular stone hut site (KE036-028002-) in the interior. This lies a little N of centre, but is now represented only by a spread of loose stones. However, the L-shaped souterrain (KE036-028001-) which opened from inside the hut-site is still preserved. This is comprised of a c. 9.2m long passage and a large, rectangular chamber. The entrance is marked by a drystone-lined hollow measuring .92m x 1m x .9m deep. A lintelled opening in its NNW side measures .79m in width and .5m in height. From this the 1st section of the drystone-built passage leads NW for 3.7m. It is roofed by 8 flat slabs, that over the entrance being set c. 0.15m below the level of the remainder. At its SE end the passage is .79m wide, but it gradually narrows to .45m at its NW end. At this point it angles slightly and then continues for a further 5.5m in a NNW direction. The roofing slab spanning the junction between the 2 sections of passage has either collapsed slightly or is set below the general level of the roof. The 2nd section of the passage is .55m wide at its SSE end and .65m high, but gradually increases to an average width of 1.05m. The floor is obscured by spill and loose stones, but the passage is a maximum of 1.4m high and is roofed by 10 flat slabs. The NNW end wall has been broken away in fairly recent times to provide access to the well-preserved chamber built at right angles to the passage. The original access was via a short creepway at the base of the wall, but this has been almost completely destroyed. However, the porthole slab that spanned its N end is preserved in situ. The aperture, now blocked, measures .36m in width and .38m in height. This opened onto the E end of the S wall of the drystone-built chamber which measures 4.9m long, 1.3m wide and 1.8m high. The side walls incline inwards slightly, reducing the width to 1m at the level of the 6 roofing slabs. The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne.

• KE036-117 Clochan
  Description

  On rough grazing land, on a broad terrace near the base of a S-facing slope with views over Tralee Bay, hut site (KE036-118----) 18m to NW. Site overgrown with briars and bracken but otherwise in good condition. Present remains consist of a clochan (dims. 2.4m N-S x 2.6m E-W; H 1.5m) set into the E side of a rectangular dry-stone enclosure (dims. 6m N-S x 5m E-W; Wth 0.6m; H 1m). The clochan has a lintelled entrance on its N side (Wth 0.6m X H 0.6m) which faces onto the entrance (Wth 0.5m) of the enclosure. A short distance (L 2.4m) out from the E and N sides of the enclosure is a low bank (H 0.5m) which would have functioned as both protection for the entrance and as a way of funnelling animals into the enclosure. A short distance (L. 5m) to the N is a length of bank (H c.0.7m) which would have both sheltered and hidden the structures from view when approaching from the coastal strip below.
