The National Monuments Service's description
The Kerry Archaeological Survey noted a possible collapsed souterrain at this location. This may correspond with the cave containing bones which Windele (1838, 155) was informed had been discovered near Cnoc na Fola (KE054-033001-) though the latter is more likely to have been a grave. No visible trace survives.
The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 783. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
