The National Monuments Service's description
Chatterton located a 'pagan altar' near a waterfall in the vicinity of Darrynane Abbey (1839, 299). A waterfall fitting Chatterton's description exists, but no megalithic tomb could be identified in its environs
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. 92. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
