What is recorded here
Timoney (1984, 323, no. 8) describes this as follows: ‘The total diameter of this barrow on flat ground is 20 m. The central area, which is at the same level as the surrounding field, is 8.40 m in diameter. There is a slight bank, 2.70 m wide and 10 cm high, on the edge of this area. There is a flat-bottomed fosse, 3.20 m wide and 20 cm deep. There is no evidence for an outer bank. Burenhult (1980:1, 97) lists this as Structure 70, Knocknahur North. It produced very low phosphate levels which argues against it being a hut site.’
