The National Monuments Service's description
A mature plantation of forestry now occurs at the location of these two possible enclosures, marked as two small circles on the second edition of the OS map. Their small size suggests that they may have been fionnán enclosures (KE091-069001-).
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. 808. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
