The National Monuments Service's description
According to Mitchell (1951, 178) 'a wooden trough 2ft 6in (0.75m) deep and well constructed of wooden planks' was found in a fulacht fia in the townland of Milleens in the 1940s. This fulacht fia was also listed in an appendix of fulachtaí fia by O'Kelly (1954, 151). It has not been precisely located.
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.
