That much is clear from the first edition of the Ordnance Survey maps, which marked it with the matter-of-fact confidence of the nineteenth-century surveyor. What is less clear is where exactly it now sits, because a thorough search of the area failed to locate it at all.

Sheepfolds, simple enclosures built to gather and manage flocks, were a common enough feature of the Irish upland landscape, usually constructed from local stone and seldom intended to last. This particular example was recorded on the Iveragh Peninsula, a stretch of southwest Kerry better known for its dramatic coastline and early medieval archaeology than for the more mundane evidence of pastoral farming. The first edition OS maps, produced in the mid-nineteenth century, captured many such functional structures before they disappeared from living memory and from the ground itself. In this case, dense forestry plantation has grown over the area since, swallowing whatever physical trace the fold may once have left behind. The trees, and the undergrowth they encourage, make any surface survey effectively impossible.
