Ballakillowey Keeill

Archaeology

This is the conjectural site of a keeill pointed out by the late H.J. Moore on farmland immediately west of the high road. A few yards of grass-grown embankment, L-shaped in plan, with its longer axis aligned east-west could be detected. A mound of stones and rubbish occupied the angle of the bank and a few large stones lay about. The impression conveyed by these slight remains was not that of a keeill. They may be the remains of a 19th century farm-building. No graves have been found.
