The National Monuments Service's description
Not marked on the OS maps, this site, recorded by Henry as a ‘cellurach’ (KE088-034003-) (1957, 105), is locally known as a church site. It is located on the same slope as KE088-029004-, approximately 320m to SW. The features noted in it by Henry are difficult to identify because of its overgrown nature and the large amount of field clearance debris deposited within it.
The above description is derived from A. O'Sullivan and J. Sheehan (compilers), 'The Iveragh peninsula: an archaeological survey of South Kerry'. Cork University Press (1996), no. 956. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
