Popped in here last time I was in Kerry about a month ago and no sign of any building work, the field behind the old farm buildings has completely grown back though doesn't look planted. Couldn't get hold of anyone for permission except a woman walking a dog on the road and she said taking a few pics would be no problem.

As for sites on Beara, would also add Derreentaggart as its very easy to get to, Ardgroom Outward has steps over a fence and some stepping stones that could be difficult to tackle if wet but if its dry should be possible. Ballycrovane and Shronebirrane are both do-able if you dont mind curtain twitchers dipping into your pockets. Drombohilly and Dromroe are both tough going as mentioned, Drombohilly can be admired from above on the road with binoculars though and the views around here are fantastic.

Did a blog about the area recently enough even though I only squeezed in a few sites (Blog)
