The National Monuments Service's description
This site is indicated by a very small circle on the second edition of the OS map. It may represent the circle of upright slabs reputed to exist in this area (local information). The area is now planted with trees and the site could not be located.
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. 790. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
