Recorded monuments

• KE044-103 Enclosure
  Description

  The circular univallate enclosure marked on the OS maps was levelled in 1982. A souterrain (KE044-103001-) was revealed at that time and is apparently still preserved though there is no surface indication of its location. It was comprised of 2 drystone chambers linked by a low passage. The site of the enclosure is now marked by a level platform in an otherwise sloping field. It is located on the S side of a low hill overlooking the Anascaul valley. The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 682. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 7 August 2013

• KE044-110 Church
  Description

  This field is known locally as 'Seana-Chill' and is traditionally regarded as the site of a church which was subsequently removed to Ballynacourty (KE044-063----) and finally to the village of Anascaul (local information). There is no visible trace of any structure here but a roadway, which skirts the E side of the field, is known as Bóthar an Aifrinn (Ashe 1954, 7) or Bóthar an tSáipéil (An Seabhac 1939, 181). The field abuts the boundary between the townlands of Farrannacarriga and Ballynacourty and An Seabhac places the site on the N side of the boundary in the latter townland. He recorded the name Cnocán an tSáipéil for the site and noted a burial ground nearby. The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey.
