What is recorded here
Knockaneacoolteen holds a poor defined burn spread beside a large raised area, marking the kind of place where fire and human life touched the same ground. The pasture keeps the event alive because the land still carries the shape of what happened there.
In pasture, on a slight S-facing slope. A poorly defined spread of burnt material on the W side of a large raised area in a field. (Castleisland District Archaeological Survey)
