The National Monuments Service's description
Delap (1911b, 439) stated that 'near Killoluaig burial ground [KE088-011001-]…is Calluragh-na-beepery. This is evidently the remains of a large dolmen'. There are now no visible remains of this structure and the evidence is insufficient to warrant acceptance as a megalithic tomb.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Kerry. Volume I: South-West Kerry' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
