The National Monuments Service's description
The townland boundary between Glancullare North and Pulleen would appear to have run through the centre of this site. This univallate rath appears on the 1841-42 and 1914 OS maps as 'Lisseighter' (Lios Íochtair, lower fort). No surface trace of it can be seen today.
The above description is derived from C. Toal, ‘North Kerry Archaeological Survey’. Dingle. Brandon in association with FAS Training and Employment Authority (1995), no. 183. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
