Firies

Firies (/ˈfaɪ.əriːz/ officially Fieries; Irish: Na Foidhrí)[2] is a village in County Kerry, Ireland in the historical barony of Magunihy.

[1] There are two principal rivers, namely the Maine and its chief tributary, the Brown Flesk.

Evidence of ancient settlement in the area includes a number of ring fort, enclosure and holy well sites in the townlands of Firies and Killahane.

The ground-floor appears to be occupied by a single chamber which was covered by a rounded vault which is almost entirely fallen.

[6] Saint Gertrude's Catholic Church, in Killahane townland, was built c. 1860.
