Knockatee is a townland in the parish of Ballincuslane, but also a hill-name. The name probably refers to this peak as it is the principal height in the townland. Previously Ballinard in MV.   Knockatee is the 889th highest place in Ireland. Knockatee is the second most westerly summit in the W Limerick/N Kerry area.
